Hey Readers!

In this month’s, The Write Life, I’m excited to share my experience last June at Nobel Prize winning author, Rudyard Kipling’s majestic house, Naulakha.

Kipling’s Naulakha, located in Dummerston, Vermont, just down the street from Brattleboro, is currently owned by The Landmark Trust. The home is only available for daily visitor tours once a year— for the Rhododendron Tour, which I attended.

A Busy Lady is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

But don’t worry – if you can’t make the yearly tour, this house IS available to rent for your next writer’s retreat where you can sit and write at Kipling’s desk where he penned favorites such as The Jungle Book, Captains Courageous and portions of the Just So Stories.
