The Writing Sisterhood: Postcards Tell a Story
http://divinesecretsofthewritingsisterhood.blogspot.com/2014/06/postcards-tell-story.html
Sunday, June 22, 2014. Postcards Tell a Story. Recently I came across this article. About a postcard from the Titanic that went up for auction. The postcard was reportedly expected to fetch $140,000. Why so much? Because this postcard is a rarity, and it tells a story. The postcard to be auctioned off. SS Titanic, April 11th, 1912. Nearing. Queenstown. Good voyage up to now. Kind regards to all. Very few second-class menu postcards are known to exist, so this one is especially a treasure for any collector.

The Writing Sisterhood: January 2014
http://divinesecretsofthewritingsisterhood.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 30, 2014. The Cephalopod Coffeehouse: The Infatuations. Ever since I started writing in English, I’ve been reading mostly American and British authors.

But, after hearing her speak about her work, I thought I'd give Outlander. The cover of my copy. If you open the front. Going back to the borin...
