The Words We Know

I’m thrilled to introduce Memoir Across the Pond, my new column at Carrot Ranch. A huge thank you for following my previous Unsung Heroes column through the travails and challenges of 2020. And to Charli Mills for the opportunity. Writing stories from my Californian past to life today in England connects me to you with universal themes of love, loss and home. The ebb and flow from shore to shore in themes that bind us. The Words We Know is a light-hearted take. Hope you’ll join me!

    • I took some agent feedback from my first round of submissions and ended up doing a deeper edit, so now I’m getting ready to submit again. So not there yet, but praying this is the year! I’m so glad you still want to read it after all this time! Thank you, Melinda, means so much, that 🙂 ❤
