As the world becomes increasingly complicated, fast, and turbulent, our ability to create Home becomes ever more important. More than buying a house and stuffing it with things bought at chain stores, Home is about creating a place that reflects our individuality, maintains a strong connection with the land and people around it, and most importantly, allows us to rediscover ourselves.

About the Author

Marilyn Finnemore
Haymaker Alexandria, VA

I love "place," and it saddens me that we're quickly turning America into "no-place" with our McMansions, mini-malls, and megaplexes. My books explore the beauty, texture and intricacy of "place," whether I'm traveling to a foreign country or simply enjoying my own beautiful neighborhood in Western Loudoun, Virginia. I believe that humans are being crushed by Sprawl and its accompanying blanket of sameness; we require real places to feed our souls and make us more of who we are and were meant to be. Much more to come . . .
