It’s been a long time coming, but the wait is finally over! Over a year ago the Columbus Metropolitan Library Main Branch shut its doors to begin the remodeling process. Already it was the most beautiful library I had ever visited and I couldn’t imagine what type of work would go into this new constructionContinue reading “The New Columbus Library”

English Squash Drink
The English do drinks so much better than Americans. One thing I instantly miss when I re-enter my homeland is the delicious and healthy quality of the drinks over in England. From the sports drink, Lucazade, to the delicious juice, Oasis, the British refreshments rank far better than the drink options here in theContinue reading “English Squash Drink”
A Prayer For Me and My Nation
I’ve only been back in America for a few days and already my heart is burdened by its condition. So much pain caused by hate is having devastating effects on people. Like so many of you, I have found it hard to listen to reports about what is happening across the country. Senseless acts ofContinue reading “A Prayer For Me and My Nation”
An Ameri Brit Brunch
There are so many things about England that I wish I could bring home with me. But meat, cheese, cakes, coffees, and people don’t fit well in suitcases and tend to raise red flags when trying to get through TSA. Every year as we settle back into our American life my husband and I alwaysContinue reading “An Ameri Brit Brunch”
Weasel Words: The Irresistible Novel
I’m back home now from my month long excursion to England. I’m still nursing a bit of jet lag and have been feeling a little under the weather. But no powers of exhaustion will keep me from taking a look at the seventeenth chapter in The Irresistible Novel, a book by Jeff Gerke to helpContinue reading “Weasel Words: The Irresistible Novel”
English Wardrobe on a Budget
This summer during my stay in England I spent a fair amount of time in Primark shops in Winchester and Southampton. To give Americans a comparative to understand Primark it is most similarly like a giant shop full of Target clothing (Merona). The clothes are of decent quality, fashionable, and easy on the wallet. OverContinue reading “English Wardrobe on a Budget”

English Costa
In America, you can hardly go three city blocks without encountering a Starbucks Cafe. Although Starbucks is present in England it’s prevalence is much less than that of Costa. Every year that’s one thing I look forward to–a warm mocha (pronounced mock-uh in the UK) topped with cream and drizzled with cocoa. Nothing beats theContinue reading “English Costa”
Breaking the Fourth Wall: The Irresistible Novel
Before I started seriously engaging in the authoring world I lacked knowledge about breaking the fourth wall. Not to say I used it all the time, but if I’m being honest I included such practice in some of my writing. This is one dramatic way in which blogging and writing fiction differ. One is indisputablyContinue reading “Breaking the Fourth Wall: The Irresistible Novel”
