The month of August marked twenty years since I made the move from the United States to Israel. I came here for what was supposed to be ten months, met my husband and stayed. After years spent trying to pretend that writing was "just" a hobby, a friend convinced me to set up a blog with him. At some point along the way, the blog became mine alone, and I turned it into a platform that reflected my views as an increasingly assimilated American living in Israel.

A heart divided in two

My memoir is somewhat on hold but still something I'm planning on getting back to at some point. We've had some medical stuff going on that has sapped a lot of energy, but once I feel back to normal I want to start working on the book again.
Any news on your end? Hope all is great,
Tracy
