Linda Leigh Paul

Linda Leigh Paul is the author of Cottages by the Sea, Coastal Retreats, Desert Retreats, Cottages on the Coast, The Cabin Book, Island Living, and Haciendas, Ranches of the American West and Casa Bohemia. Recent releases include The Stone House, (2018), and a future release of Architecture in Wine Regions of the West Coast (Spring 2020), all from Rizzoli International Publications, Inc. Linda was an editorial and production collaborator on the independently published cultural classic Maximum Plunder (2016) by Mike King, Paul Herring and Shawna Gore. Highly recommended for those with a passion for punk music and art of the years 1980 through 2010, the book features 1000 images of Mike King album covers and event posters for nearly every nameable and a few not so well-known bands of the era. Linda is currently working on a biography of an American architect due for release in 2021. You are invited to delve further into Linda's interests by looking into her recent adventure as an Etsy store: Ainsi Soit Elle. The name of the store is taken from a book of the same title by French author Benoite Groult published in France in the mid-1970's. In addition to the phrase *Amen* (meaning *And so be He*) affirming statements of belief, Ainsi Soit Elle adds to the lexicon and translates to *And So Be She.*
