Meet the authors 2024 in Nice

During the Festival du Livre à Nice, I was invited by fellow author Ella Dyer and House Hunters International host Adrian Leeds to their 10th annual Meet the Authors event. Six scribes spoke to a full house of about 50 people.

One gracious lady came up to me before I went on to say, “French License is the funniest book I ever read.” That really made my day, and inspired me before my reading.

Another guy had to leave early, but wanted to buy the book before. So, while a fellow writer was speaking, I had to sheepishly run over through the camera eye and give him change for a big bill. Hope the other author will forgive me 🙁

They also showed a teaser about my Père Lachaise 👣 tours on @VoiceMap and allowed me to speak about my book📕 French License.

Fellow expats @Paula Branco and @Tony de Souza shared their creative activities and adaptation stories. Paula runs a very active Internations group with events for expats, and she’s been kind enough to invite her members to several of my in-person tours.

A big thanks to the host 📽 @Alex Viguier and her colleagues at @TV78.Officiel for the opportunity, and for supporting programming for anglophones in the Paris region.
