Who we are

Ira
Ira is a Professor of Creative Writing at Kenyon College and the author of several books. Check out his webpage to see all his publications and special appearances. The love of food and culture feed this need to hit the road. He is an avid traveler and has passed this wanderlust gene onto Bodhi, starting at a young age.
Deedra
Deedra is the technical person behind the
scenes. As the Assistant Director for the Office of Sponsored Faculty Projects at Kenyon College, she is used to being the one who keeps things organized. In her spare time, ha ha ha, she likes to crochet and craft, or just spend time cuddling with the boy while he still lets her.
Together, we make up the Kingdom of Ra (I-ra and Deed-ra).
And Bodhi
Bodhi is the little prince of the Kingdom and ruler of all things. He will talk your ear off about all things Pokémon, Tae Kwon Do, and French fries. In fact, he plans to eat all the fries…er we mean “chips”… in England and give detailed reviews.
