Author Adventures

So much of writing means being locked away in a lonely room with barely any human contact for weeks on end.  But that’s about to change for me!
Next month, I am so excited to be traveling to Europe for the first time. I will be spending a week in France with some amazing writers, working together, taking classes to improve our craft, going on walks, and just having a wonderful adventure to replenish our creativity. I’m also hoping to exercise my rusty French, which I haven’t used since University. (And a few trips to nearby Quebec where everyone speaks English, anyway.)
I find it so interesting the way things work out—it was precisely a year ago that I was working on Clarity 5, and writing about Helen going to France for her honeymoon. I’ve always discovered that when I put a lot of energy and focus into writing about something, it tends to come true for me. Sadly, this hasn’t always been positive. For example, while writing Clarity 4, where Helen was recovering from a massive car accident, I went out for a small drive to de-stress from work, and my car skidded on ice and spun out, before smashing into a telephone pole. 
RIP, my first car, my baby.
