One Hundred Years of SolitudeOne Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I thoroughly enjoyed this gorgeous novel and the Buendia family will stick with me for quite a while as I continue to make sense of each of the characters. I’ve only scratched the surface, of that I’m sure.

SHE! Magazine, debuts October 12th

October 2, 2016, 4:18 pm

Virginia News Group is launching an exciting new women’s magazine called SHE! The inaugural issue comes out October 12th. Smart, fun, and highly interactive, SHE! is the magazine women will fall in love with. Written by busy women for busy women, SHE! covers the topics that call to a woman’s soul and connect her with other women and the community. Fashion. Family. Good books. Great getaways. Fine wine. Fun cocktails. Trail blazing heroines. And a whole lot more. Look for my article: People Pleasing is not an Option in the debut issue. I’m thrilled to be working with Susan McCorkindale on this new magazine. SHE! can be found on FB and Instagram at shemagazineva and on Twitter at shemagazineva1. SHE! will publish four issues in 2017. To subscribe, send a check for $19.80 made payable to the Fauquier Times at 39 Culpeper Street, Warrenton, VA 20186 and indicate in the memo line “1 year subscription to SHE!.”
