A Yankee Love Story (my favorite kind)

Sixty-three years ago when Jack and Charlotte started dating, the family had its doubts.  

Brownie said to Stella:  “Jack is pretty set in his ways.” 

Stella says to Brownie, “Charlotte’s pretty set in her ways.”

Brownie said:  “I guess they’ll just have to set then.”

Charlotte and Jack are still married.  Still setting.

About this blog

  • cover

    Rebecca Rule, author of Live Free and Eat Pie: A Storyteller’s Guide to New Hampshire, spends a lot of time on the road, traveling to her performances throughout the Granite State and beyond. She loves her home state, meeting lots of great people and visiting both new and familiar places. Now she can share all that she finds with her new blog. So please "join" her on the road and check back often.

About Becky

  • Becky has lived all her life (so far) in New Hampshire. She has written several other popular books set in her home state, including "The Best Revenge," a collection of short stories that was named one of the five Essential New Hampshire Books by New Hampshire Magazine, and "Could Have Been Worse: True Stories, Embellishments and Outright Lies." However, she is probably best known for her live storytelling events, many sponsored by the New Hampshire Humanities Council.
