(JUNE2010) This blog **HAS MOVED** to expat+HAREM, the global niche, where my cultural producer posts now appear in a new series called Founder’s Desk and you can find the latest on me and my works.

Besides in newspapers and magazines around the world and online, my writing has appeared in several nonfiction anthologies, and I coedited one literary collection. Click on book covers for details and excerpts. For a list of essays you can read on the web see below.

    Fine books, fine blog. It’s a pitty I can read what you write and you can’t (I suppose)… as my blog is in Portuguese. But I’m please to have met another multicultural woman in this world!
    I have also written a book about living and working in Germany and how to understand better the German culture.
    Please check my blog: http://www.mineirinhanalemanha.de
    Kindest regards from Germany,
    Sandra

    Thanks for stopping by Sandra. You’re right, I can’t read Portuguese but I was able to enjoy the photos on your blog! Glad to hear you are sharing your German experiences with your countrypeople….
