I’m a little sad to be writing my last blog post, saying goodbye to you all. It’s been such fun being a Good Girl, (virtually) hanging out, and getting to know you. And though we’ve not had one for ages, I’ll always miss our Virtual Cocktail Parties.
Instead of getting all morose, let’s be fun. Answer […]
I’m in England, watching the snow fall on the lovely Victorian complex that houses our flat. You couldn’t ask for a lovelier start to the holiday season. It’s Friday, which means fish and chips tonight, and then we’re off to London for Christmas itself. I couldn’t be more excited about my first official English Christmas!
There […]
Friends, friends, friends….there is nothing I can more highly recommend than being whisked away to Jamaica. After eight days in paradise spent lounging on a beach and reading book after book, I really just could not be more relaxed. Now, I’ve never been anywhere like this before. In fact, the only true vacations I’ve taken […]
…..I will be relaxed, golden brown, and have finished reading at least four books, happily ensconced in the Undisclosed Location of the Birthday Trip. But as I’m writing this, I’m up too late after having packed (if you’ve never had the opportunity to pack a bag without knowing your destination, I highly, highly recommend it), […]

I’m getting ready to pack. The Divine Mr Grant has planned a surprise Birthday Trip, to an undisclosed location. All I know is I’ll need my passport and summer clothes. The rest, Dear Readers, I’ll let you know upon my return…..
Happy […]
So first off, I must admit at once that Andrew, not I, came up with this title. We’re cozied up in Sheffield, both finishing up revisions on our latest books, and as my mind is more focused on titling the actual book than a blog post, he–perfect English gentleman that he is–took on the task […]
For about a month, I’ve been halfway through writing an Ode to the Oxford English Dictionary (which I really could not adore more), but renovations and moving and revising Emily’s French Adventure (title to come….) has kept me from being able to focus on it.
So instead, it’s going to be poetry Friday. I’ve been in […]
The Urban Book Paradise is (nearly) done and we’ve moved in. Painters are finishing up today, and bookcases start coming on Monday along with the much-awaited kitchen counter. I couldn’t be more thrilled!!!
Mainly, truth be told, because of the bookcases. Kitchen counters are great, but I am so ready to get my books on the […]
