Truth Universally Acknowledged

The title of this blog is an obvious reference to my favourite author, Jane Austen. My other great inspiration is Ella Fitzgerald. I intend this site to be general musings about things which interest me, and hopefully you as well.

Name: Carlotta

Location: Auckland, New Zealand

I'm a girl in her twenties living in New Zealand - of Irish and Scottish descent. I'm married to a wonderful guy and we live in a tiny house in the suburbs with a menagerie of soft toys and model aircraft. My main occupations at the moment are attempting to become and author and surviving my day job... wish me luck!

Beautiful books and deviant language

Click here to see gorgeous photos of the world's most grand libraries.

It seems companies want to control the way we use language. I don't know why Google has problems with us "googling" - I would have thought any publicity was a good thing.

We'll be coming round the mountain...

Off to Whakapapa for a week. The forecast isn't that great, but hopefully we'll get one or two days in...

The beauty of Nelson

I've been away quite a bit lately, and consequently quiet on this blog. So I thought I better post some evidence of my travels. Here you go.
