Broadside went live in 2009 — so there are many posts in here to browse!
I’m a career journalist, so you’ll find many focused on writing, journalism, books and the world of publishing non-fiction.
Having traveled the world, (38 countries, 38 U.S. states and every Canadian province but Prince Edward Island), you’ll also find many posts on travel, especially how to travel alone safely while female.
I’m passionate about design, antiques and interiors, so you’ll also find some helpful tips on how to decorate beautifully on a budget.
