About

Lit with a Twist pairs the written word with a selected libation. Be it a book with a heavy pour of wine, a newspaper topped off with whiskey or a comic book with an ice cold finish of beer. We say cheers to it all!

We enjoy fun pairings, drunken book clubs, and our co-editor, Fitzgerald is totally judging you right now (spoiler – he’s a cat).

Content and pairings are brought to you by Lit with a Twist host and creator, Rachel Yeomans. Video animation and editing is brought to you by Eric Mehl of Hypothetical. Snark is brought to you by Fitzgerald.

Cheers!

Rachel Yeomans dreams of two things: big libraries and wine cellars. You will find her frequently plotting her return trips to Paris and Savannah with her husband and quirky feline companions, Ella and Fitzgerald.

Her obsession with reading started when she was young, growing up with the Berenstain Bears series, Shel Silverstein poems and episodes of Reading Rainbow. (The Dark is Rising series was what got her hooked – like, really hooked.) It was a bottle of Seghesio Sonoma Zinfandel that sparked her interest in wine. Through wine courses, tastings and working part time at a local wine shop, Rachel’s palette has expanded to include dark beer, smoky scotches  and crisp, cool vodkas. Her cocktail of choice: The Manhattan (made with rye vs. bourbon – just a preference).

She is also “slightly” obsessed with anything BBC.
