A Gift for Maisie Bloom by Jessie Cahalin, Out Today @RNAtweets #TuesNews #RomCom @BooksInHandbag

A Gift for Maisie Bloom by Jessie Cahalin is out today! Jessie, one of my oldest friends on Twitter/X, has been a joy to know and support throughout her writing journey. When I heard her charming romcom debut was on the way, I knew I had to be part of her special day. She is a writer who brings warmth, wit, and heart to every story—just as she does to those lucky enough to call her a friend.

Flâneurs on Paris Streets, Smiling Under Arches and Iron Sculptures

Five years ago we visited Paris and like greedy-eyed flâneurs, we smiled under arches and admired its iron carvings. We started our Parisian tour with glossy Trocadéro and Palais de Chaillot’s secrets and relaxed in the gardens of notorious Place de la Concorde.

On our way to the the thrilling Arc de Triomphe de l’Étoile we simply strolled along the rues of Paris and admired its wrought-iron street art… Before climbing the historical Eiffel Tower… Before bowing underneath the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel… Before finding the shortest way to the Mona Lisa inside the artsy maize of Palais Royal Musee du Louvre… and other touristic activities people do in Paris, such as paying a visit to Nicolas Flamel’s home or finding the sinking house of Paris. Come, off we go along my Parisian memory lane!

If you ever asked yourself why everyone loves Paris, then glossy Trocadéro and the Palais de Chaillot, not to mention Place de la Concorde, are three perfect reasons. Join me down the memory lane to one sunny August morning as we pay homage to the cultural heritage and vibrant spirit of France on its National Day, 14 July. Vive la France!
