This was fun too: podcast on Paris Underground Radio in which I discuss the difference in meaning between the word "correct" in French, and in American English. 🙂 #France #French #language #culture #psychology #DemystifyingTheFrench www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-1...

What fun it was to sign books at The American Church in Paris at their annual Bloom Where You're Planted program last Saturday. Big thanks to Penelope Fletcher and the Red Wheelbarrow bookstore for this opportunity to let people know about "Demystifying the French" and "A Long Way From Iowa." 🙂 📚 📚📚
