I'm pleased to share a recent interview I did with the Austin Statesman that came out in the paper and online last Thursday. My brother texted me to let me know the article was also picked up by the USA Today Network and printed in the Greenville News in South Carolina and other papers! #AustinStatesman #TexasAuthor #ItalyTexas #IndieAuthor #StudentessaMatta #USATodayNetwork #IntheNews

Parole, parole, parole: Rimuginante / Rimuginand

Parole, parole, parole:

Rimuginante / Rimuginando = Brooding, to mull things over, to over think things

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Senti, ci stai rimuginando troppo.

Look, you're way overthinking this.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Stai rimuginando sulla tua ragazza mentre abbiamo degli affari di cui occuparci.

You're brooding over your girl when we have business to attend to.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Avrebbe potuto continuare a disperarsi, sprecando i suoi giorni rimuginando e affondando sempre più nella disperazione.

He could have continued in despair, wasting his days brooding and sinking further into hopelessness. #ItalianLanguage #LearnItalian #LearnItalianItaly #ItalianProgramsLucca #ItalianProgramsAbroad #StudentessaMatta #LanguageLearningTips

New 5-star book review for "The Secret Life of Sofonisba Anguissola" from Aimee Ann (Red Headed Book Lover.) "What a stellar and moving story."

New 5-star book review from Aimee Ann "Red Headed Book Lover."

The Secret Life of Sofonisba Anguissola is another sensational book written by the exceptional and talented author Melissa Muldoon and wow what a stellar and moving story! The Secret Life of Sofonisba Anguissola is a brilliant book and I admit I had high hopes considering I have loved three previous novels by Muldoon titled Eternally Artemisia, Dreaming Sophia, and Waking Isabella! So I was excited to read The Secret Life of Sofonisba Anguissola and now that I have finished it I can happily say that this book does not disappoint!

Parole, Parole, Parole! Donnaiolo = Philanderer

Parole, Parole, Parole!

Donnaiolo = Philanderer / womanizer / Ladies’ man

Un superficiale donnaiolo che si trasforma con brillante arguzia.

A shallow womanizer who fashions himself a dashing wit.

Lei è un'ubriacona e lui un donnaiolo.

She's a drunk and he's a philanderer.

Potrei non sembrarlo, ma sono un donnaiolo a questa città.

You might not see it in me, but I'm quite the ladies' man in this town.

Take it from Stacy from Washington, D.C. a very happy studentessa who highly recommends Eli! Here's what she has to say:

I recommend F&C Italian Program without any hesitation! I have studied Italian for almost three years. I have studied grammar, read stories, and participated in all kinds of courses to increase my listening and off-the-cuff speaking skills. But I never felt at all comfortable in the everyday situations encountered while out-and-about in Italy. Where’s the best place to buy prosciutto?

If you are on the fence about signing up for Eli’s Program, my parting advice is to stop thinking and get on board.
