Charlotte of Belgium was the beautiful and bright only daughter of the first King of Belgium. Her life looked to be joyous too, when she fell in love with a Hapsburg Archduke, Maximilian of Austria. The couple's numerous royal connections even got them a incredible job opportunity, to become the rulers of the newly established Empire of Mexico. They crossed the Atlantic full of tropical, turquoise dreams of being hailed as heroes. But they quickly discovered that they were philosophically opposed to the small percentage of Mexicans who actually wanted them there. As the Empire crumbled, Carlota made a desperate return to Europe to beg for help. Only to be met with cold rejection, which ensured Maximilian's demise and drove Carlota to the depths of mental illness. Let's get to know Empress Carlota of Mexico and The Tragically Short Hapsburg Mexican Empire. Plus the History behind Cinco de Mayo. Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

Cinco de Mayo is Mexican Independence Day, right? Nope. Mexican Independence is nearly four decades before the battle from which we get Cinco de Mayo. The true story is soooo much more delicious than just an independence day. The real Cinco de Mayo is about Napoleon III's bizarre attempt to put an Austrian Archduke on the throne of a new Mexican Empire.  If you liked this episode, you will LOVE the book. But it HERE.

C.M. Mayo introduces her new ebook, Podcasting for Writers & Other Creative Entrepreneurs (Dancing Chiva, 2012). "Naples Dave" and others from fiverr.com are the big voices, along with music clips from istockaudio.com, uniquetracks.com, plus silly sound effects, and more. C.M. Mayo recorded her portion at ye olde writing desk desk (any snoring sounds are from the dog) and edited the whole shebang on her laptop using Apple's GarageBand. As Mayo says, "If I can podcast, so can you." About the ebook: Based on award-winning writer and avid podcaster C.M. Mayo’s one day workshop at the Writer’s Center, Podcasting for Writers & Other Literary Entrepreneurs provides an introduction and overview of podcasting for writers, from basic concepts to nuts-and-bolts tips. In 10 “easy peasy” steps (along with some “fancy schmancy” for those so inclined), Mayo shows you how to generate and publish your unique podcast—and yes, get that puppy onto iTunes. Read more about this ebook at www.dancingchiva.com C. M. Mayo is the author of the novel, The Last Prince of the Mexican Empire (Unbridled Books); which was named a Library Journal Best Book 2009; Miraculous Air: Journey of a Thousand Miles through Baja California, the Other Mexico (Milkweed Editions); and Sky Over El Nido (University of Georgia Press), which won the Flannery O’Connor Award for Short Fiction. Mayo started out podcasting in 2009 with a simple recording of her lecture for the Library of Congress about the original archival research behind her novel; since then, it’s just been one podcast after another. Currently she hosts two podcast series, Conversations with Other Writers and, apropos of a travel memoir in progress, Marfa Mondays: Exploring Marfa, TX & Environs in 24 Podcasts.” Her website is www.cmmayo.com

Ever since I first heard about Marfa and the remote mountain ranges of West Texas, I yearned to go there. About a decade ago, on a brief visit, I drank in the majesty of the vast spaces, the bluer than blue skies, and at night, stars beyond stars, and— yes, they're real—the Marfa Lights. But the people? Breezing through, I didn't have a chance to talk to many, for I was deep into writing another book, Miraculous Air, about Baja California, Mexico's nearly 1,000 mile long peninsula. Once that wrapped up, I wanted to come back to explore Marfa but first, what I imagined would be a lickety-split project: researching and writing a novel based on the strange but true story of, as the title says, The Last Prince of the Mexican Empire. It seems a pattern with me, that writing a book always takes about seven times longer than I had planned, but never mind, finally, I am returning to Marfa and West Texas. No, not to live: I'm based in Mexico City, but over the next two years, in a series of journeys, I'll be writing a book about Marfa and environs. So why the podcasts? In the past, as I did while writing Miraculous Air, I would have turned out a series of travel articles for newspapers and magazines. I may still write an article or three, but I am less interested in which is the cheapest / best / coollest bed-and-breakfast & etc., than I am in talking to people and, now that podcasting is possible, rather than stash my notes and taped interviews in the drawer, I can share them widely. With this series of 24 podcasts, scheduled for the third Monday of each month from 2012 through 2013, I invite you to join me in this adventure in listening.  [UPDATE: Through 2016] > Transcript > MARFA MONDAYS PODCASTING PROJECT (ALL PODCASTS)  > World Waiting for a Dream: A Turn in Far West Texas > C.M.

Presentación El último príncipe del Imperio Mexicano, la novela basada en la historia real, en la ciudad de México 26 de mayo, 2011 con el Dr. Javier Garciadiego, Carlos González Manterola, el novelista Carlos Pascual, Eduardo Turrent, y la autora, C.M. Mayo. La novela, originalmente publicada en inglés como The Last Prince of the Mexican Empire, y nombrado uno de los mejores libros de 2009 por Library Journal, fue traducido por Agustín Cadena y publicado en septiembre de 2010 por Grijalbo Random House Mondadori. "En México se han escrito novelas históricas que recrean con erudición, maestría y poesía una época, un episodio, una atmósfera y unos personajes. Pienso, desde luego, en Noticias del imperio de Fernando del Paso; también en la obra de Enrique Serna sobre Santa Anna, la de Rosa Beltrán sobre Guerrero o la reciente novela de C.M. Mayo: El último príncipe del Imperio Mexicano, sobre el nieto de Iturbide en la corte de Maximiliano." Enrique Krauze "Después de realizar una investigación imponente, Mayo, ganadora del premio Flannery O'Connor para cuento corto por su libro El cielo de El Nido, ha compilado una historia que es a la vez grandiosa e íntima sobre un niño que suscitó un escándalo internacional. La intrigante narración del príncipe de México nos ofrece una excelente lección de historia sobre las razones por las que la aventura paternal de Maximiliano en un país que no lo quería estaba destinada al fracaso". Latin American Book Review "He leído algunas novelas históricas fascinantes que han quedado grabadas en mi memoria: La guerra y la paz, de León Tostoi es una de ellas; otra es Historia de dos ciudades, de Charles Dickens y Doctor Zhivago, de Boris Pasternak. Ahora puedo agregar a mi lista El último príncipe del Imperio Mexicano."James Tipton, Mexico Connect   "Un logro impresionante… una sugerente novela que dista mucho de las aburridas lecciones de historia." El Paso Times "Una rica novela histórica donde las ambiciones políticas, las intrigas de la corte imperial y la relación entre países en la cúspide de la colonización europea son el hilo conductor de la intricada trama de la novela, que nos transporta en un viaje vertiginoso desde Washington hasta Veracruz y París, y de regreso a México y Estados Unidos. Las evocadoras descripciones e irónicos comentarios sobre la relación entre culturas hace de ésta una novela importante y disfrutable, de particular relevancia en los tiempos que vivimos". Literal: Latin American Voices / Voces latinoamericanas
