Juliettes Blog

First of all, I want to say omitting the apostrophe in the title is driving me crazy, but apparently you aren’t allowed to have an apostrophe in a url, so this is what we’re stuck with. To all the Grammar Police out there, I apologize!
Juliettes Blog is the place where stories stretch their legs. Where history breathes through half-forgotten remedies, backroads research trips, curious old texts, and the quiet beauty of everyday discovery. Whether you’re here for behind-the-scenes glimpses into the making of From the Drop of Heaven, inspiration for your own creative projects, or simply to wander the Vosges with me from the comfort of your screen—you’re in the right place.
Each post is a small window into the world behind the book: research adventures, book club extras, ancestral oddities, and the deep well of historical detail that shaped the story. You’ll also find updates, event news, and musings on everything from vintage font choices to foraging in forgotten forests.
Juliettes blog is also an invitation—to slow down, to follow the thread of a question, to get curious about the past and how it still hums beneath the surface of things. You don’t need to be a historian or a writer to belong here. Just bring your sense of wonder.
Because while centuries have come and gone, people haven’t really changed. We still ache, love, hide things, seek answers, and wrestle with what’s right. We still fear for our children and hope for something better. If you listen closely enough, the voices from the past don’t sound so different from our own.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you find something here that stays with you.
I am reposting a photo of my first award, the Royal Palm Literary Award because it is pretty and because I truly believe that without it, I wouldn’t have gotten a contract from Sunbury Press.
