AudiobookSYNC is a program for teens, ages 13+, to access free audiobook titles during the summer. Each week, beginning April 30th, two audiobook titles are released for download. Most of the time, the audiobooks are YA novels, but some classics are sprinkled in, as well. The two titles are “synced” by having a common theme. This year, the free YA audiobook program is utilizing the Sora app (see previous information on Sora).… Read More »

I’ve fallen in love with Oakland Cemetery. I had always wanted to go and finally went last fall with my mom and meandered all around. The plants and flowers and architecture and views of downtown all around mesmerized me. I joined the Oakland Foundation that very day and have been back for events and just to wander. … Read More »

I’m having so much fun getting out and about meeting clients so far this year. Meeting Nicole McAluney in her beautiful downtown Alpharetta office was so much fun.

I read this book last weekend…couldn’t put it down. The main character’s brain is nothing like mine yet such an interesting and altogether different perspective of motherhood. The theme is mysterious to the very end. Definitely a page turner! I’m giving away a copy to an Aha! Subscriber who’d like to read it next! … Read More »
Recently the Aha! Style Editor and I were lucky enough to celebrate a mini empty-nester spring break weekend in Houston, TX with our hubbies… The weather was excellent, the food was delicious, and the shopping….well it was hilarious.
