Tiny Little Thing

Tiny (real name Christina) is on the brink for  good things. Married to a man with high political aspirations, Tiny- with her perfect ways and desire to show a perfect life, could be the best politician’s wife.

Tiny, on the outside, is the type of woman to strive to be. Poised, accomplished, beautiful- she is the type of woman that the words “lady of the house” are designed to describe.

However, on the inside….

Tiny is a mess. She questions her future, she thinks about events that happened 2 years earlier- and she wonders about her marriage.  Continue reading

Interview With Patti Callahan Henry

Hi Patti- so glad to have you back at Traveling With T to talk about your latest book, THE IDEA OF LOVE!

T, Thanks so much for having me back. You know I love talking about books and stories. It’s a privilege to be here.

Let’s talk about a quote in the book: “As we say in the South, don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story.” Why do you think Southerners tell such good stories? In society, it’s rarely; if ever, acknowledged that a Northern person might could tell a good story- it’s almost always attributed as a Southern thing. Continue reading

Interview with Lizzie Harwood, author of Xamnesia

author interviews

Hello! Lizzie Harwood is back today to talk about her new memoir, XAMNESIA! There is a Goodreads giveaway– ends June 23rd- so HURRY!

 

Interview with Lizzie Harwood about XAMNESIA:

Hi Lizzie- welcome back to Traveling With T!

Thanks for inviting me back! I love your site. Let’s travel…

Xamnesia is about your previous work and the world you found yourself in after accepting a job that required you to rub elbows with rich and famous (but to keep your lips zipped!) How surreal was it to be in a world like that- where money was no problem and most whims could be taken care of with a phone call?

Surreal is a good word. I think the self-containment of it comes across in my memoir – it was a world that operated apart from the real world and everything happened by phone or fax. We never emailed and hardly even went into stores. Things appeared. Continue reading
