Choosing the perfect book excerpt is like crafting a dating profile—it’s all about the tease. Swipe left on the snooze-fest prologue; swipe right on the scene that makes readers whisper, “Just one more chapter…” at 2 a.m. Your goal? To leave them breathless, not bewildered. Let’s turn your book into a literary Casanova.
Liz, it took me a while to get back to you on this last one about your houseguest during the fires. It wasn’t because I didn’t like it. It was because I couldn’t stop laughing! I read it to Ted and and he thought it was great too. We both decided you’ve got talent, but I told you that many years ago. If you don’t get these things published, I’ll die. Or should I say, if you don’t get these published before I die I will die a very sad old lady. You are really fun to read. It has been such a pleasure to know that side of your personality. Your writing is gorgeous. It gets better with each and Every story you ✍️. Big hugs and a giant congratulations. If you ever get over here, we will drink a lot of champagne to celebrate all of your terrific tales. Judith.
What an experience that must have been!

Will France grant me entrée or is my American-ness the ultimate faux pas? Asking for a friend who still says ‘croissant’ with a hard ‘t’.
They’ll let you in if they let us in. And to tell the truth, I still say BLANC with a hard C. lol
