Tina Chaulk lives in Conception Bay South, Newfoundland and Labrador, with her husband and two sons while writing and working in a variety of freelance technical roles.
"Gut-painful and gut-funny, A Few Kinds of Wrong takes us down a
journey of loss, deception, self-destruction and love. Chaulk
writes deftly of the hilarity and pathos of being human, of faults
and failures, of suffering and joy. Palpable characters and solid
storytelling. -Michelle Butler Hallett, author of Double-blind and
Sky Waves - 20100730
"I enjoyed A Few Kinds of Wrong, a book that engages the reader in
a subject rarely treated in modern fiction -- the shattering,
unreasoned grief of a daughter when her beloved father dies. Tina
Chaulk has a talent for getting inside the always quirky and often
perverse sensibility of her protagonist, a young woman coming to
terms with flawed memories, misunderstood relationships and a
reinterpretation of family history." -Bernice Morgan, award-winning
author of Cloud of Bone and Random Passage - 20100730
"It is good solid stuff with unexpected yet authentic twists, and
people you are interested in. A book like this is why people read."
-Joan Sullivan, The Telegram - 20100730
"It's the story of a flawed but ultimately likable young woman.
It's simultaneously painful and funny to watch Jennifer cope with
her life. Funny because Chaulk has the gift of summarizing the
human condition in a few words words, and painful for the same
reason." -Jean Graham, Northeast Avalon Times - 20100730
"One of Chaulk's strengths as a writer is her descriptive
ability... Another strength of Chaulk's is her ability to create
realistic characters... A Few Kinds of Wrong is funny, poignant,
and has a sense of desperation, a need to fix things, that many of
us feel at times in our lives." -Sharon Hunt, The Chronicle Herald
- 20100730
"The plot plays out loud like a script, with most of the characters
coming to life through dialogue. A Few Kinds of Wrong is gut
wrenching and sarcastic, balanced with true life." -Gina Gill The
Current - 20100730
"There were times when I felt like giving Jennifer a shake. By the
time I closed the book, however, having witnessed Jennifer begin to
untangle herself from the shackles of her oh-so-human faults, my
emotions had changed. I'd grown fond of Jennifer, p'raps even begun
to love her a little, and not just because she could fix my car.
-Harold Walters, The Southern Gazette - 20100730
