I looked forward to the Eleventh Hour lectures every day. I called them the Elevenses because each presentation refreshed me, like an English morning cuppa.
I journeyed to the Iowa Summer Writing Festival in July to study on the University of Iowa campus—incubator of the workshop method of teaching writing that hatched MFA programs across the US. Immersed in lectures, critique sessions and readings, with time to wander beautiful Iowa City, hang out at Prairie Lights Bookstore and graze at the Bread Market, it was a perfect week.
Paris is a feast for the eyes, the stomach and the soul. I go to Paris to walk, drink cafe au lait,and breathe in beauty.
Paris is a much loved city. Beautiful works of art adorn her. When the people of France overthrew the monarchy, I suppose they crowned Paris their queen.
I spent as much time gawking at how Parisians put themselves together as I did at the art and architecture. Either they wear black, a splash of color, say a classic leather jacket in bright blue, and fabulous jewelry (they must all have personal jewelers because I never saw anything in a store like the baubles that adorned les femmes), or they wear black and set it off with a bright shirt and matching flats.
