You don’t hear from me for months. Then I’m bothering you weekly. This makes sense to me. I don’t send blog posts unless I’ve something to say that doesn’t belong in the Work In Progress.

But an EVENT is coming up soon. Author Susan Holloway Scott and I return under the kind auspices of the Ashland Public Library and Super-librarian Meena Jain to talk nerdy history. Some of you may recall our blog, named, aptly enough Two Nerdy History Girls. It’s still there, still searchable, though we stopped posting a few years ago.

While we’ve stopped posting blogs there, we haven’t stopped being nerdy about history, and so we welcome the opportunity to talk about what we feel is truly interesting about the past. The focus is not on politics and wars but on how people lived: what they wore, what they ate, where they lived, how they got from one place to another. To us, research combines detective work with time travel.

If you read my books, you probably have a bit of interest in the past, too. Maybe you have questions. I do hope so, because that’s fun. Even when we don’t know the answers, you can be sure we’ll jump at the chance to hunt them down.
