Rebecca Chandler is a serial American expat who is forced to move home  to Los Angeles after things go wrong during the COVID pandemic.  Rebecca returns to America immediately immersed in "reverse culture shock" and feeling a bit overwhelmed by the challenges that come with "learning how to America, again".  After living in Egypt, Kenya and Singapore, Rebecca  doesn't feel "entirely American" anymore and is confused by massive grocery stores, driving on the right, losing the metric system, the coffee culture, and other daily challenges..  America 101 is a lighthearted perspective into one American's attempt to repatriate and learn how to become relevant.

Ghosts of People Past by TeddieTzo
6 parts Complete
Ghosts of People Past begins with a series of mysterious events that happen to fifty-year-old Nora one snowy night in a remote mountain village of Western Macedonia, Greece. Upon returning home from a cousin’s funeral, she finds an email on her computer from the Algerian archaeology student she once nearly loved to death. This triggers off a surge of memories and reopens unresolved issues with her past, the closure she never got and the guilty secrets she has harbored. With the help of a bottle of whisky and her resurrected cat, she begins to dust off her memories and starts to write her life story determined to finish it in one night before it is too late. From Boston to Thessaloniki and from Rome to Algeria she narrates the events of her life that stigmatized her forever: her expulsion from her home in Boston by her parents, the cultural shock of moving to Greece, her doomed love for a Muslim student in the hard and gloomy years of the Greek dictatorship in Greece. Her communication with her ex-boyfriend via MSN unravels on a second plane of narration and leads to dramatic revelations which force Nora to face a past she has spent years struggling to forget. The dimensions of time mesh in a strange game of alternating reality and fantasy right up to the books cathartic end. You can find me at:
