Today, I'm reflecting on a memory that still brings a smile to my face. It was a few years ago at a local literary event, where I had the chance to meet one of my favorite historical novelists. Not only did we discuss our shared love for history, but we also bonded over a mutual appreciation for the intricate characters and plots that bring the past to life. That serendipitous encounter reminded me of the power of stories to connect us across time and space. What’s a memory that brings a smile to your face? 😊📚
