One way or another 2020 has probably been one of the weirdest years in the USA’s history since you dumped all that tea into Boston harbour.

Without wishing to get political or name names, I must say that – from my own personal point of view – I’m delighted for you guys that your political future finally looks more stable.

Now all we all have to do is to work together to beat down the COVID pandemic so we can all get on with ‘normal’ lives, and restore the rest of the world’s political sanity that has been absent for some years.

And by the way, while you’re here have a look at this, er, funny and irreverent article I wrote about the US Thanksgiving way back in pre-Trump days…

All that is to come! [Continue reading]

Do you, or does someone you know, dream of writing a nonfiction book to share your expertise and your story with the world? I can make that dream come true, and this new book of mine will go a long way towards achieving that, too.
To quote best-selling Royal biographer and novelist (as T P Fielden) Christopher Wilson…

“As the author of many nonfiction books
myself, I applaud Suzan’s ability to teach
new nonfiction authors what they need to know
without formulae or jargon; to make that
experience entertaining and amusing in places;
and above all, to make it a ‘good read.’”

“She’s enviably brilliant, wickedly funny,
and has a work ethic that’s one of the wonders
of the 21st century. Every writer can learn
from her – me included.”
