Last summer the UK had the Olympics, but this summer isn’t too shabby either. The Stones finally played Glastonbury, Andy Murray won Wimbledon, and, according to Twitter, Kate Middleton is in labour as I type. To celebrate all things great about this Great British summer, there’s a Goodreads giveaway for my book, Americashire, running now through August 8th. Hurry on over and enter now. It’s open to UK residents as well as many of the notable former colonies (by which I mean Australia, Canada and the U.S.).
See the giveaway details
at Goodreads.
Today Trish of Britrish.com hosted an interview with me about Americashire. Like me, Trish is a former British resident and current Californian. I used the interview as an opportunity to insult the British on their lack of breadth in salad offerings, as well as to implore them to give iced tea a chance. Hope you enjoy!
Today’s stop on the Americashire blog tour offers musings on a variety of English behaviors that would simply never happen at home. Head over to Tiffany Talks Books to check it out.
Just heading out of NYC after two hot but fun days in the city. The highlight was attending Book Expo America, where my book, Americashire: A Field Guide to a Marriage, based on this blog was awarded Best Travel Writing–2013 IndieReader Discovery Awards. Here’s a snap of me enjoying the moment!
