Hi Valentina! So glad to see you're a fellow women's fiction/historical author - aren't they fun genres? I love the Balkans, and especially Bulgaria - so much interesting history, achitecture, and great food. It's a great question. I've been in Italy for (gulp!) twenty-five years now, but even after all that time, its beauty and history still surprise me. I travel a lot, but still have so many places I need to see. Even in Rome, there's always one more church to discover, one minor museum I have't yet seen or a newly discovered Ancient Roman site I need to visit. The good news is - endless inspiration for future works! Happy writing - and traveling - to you, too!

Super excited about my second novel. It was so much fun for me to write. I'm currently incorporating edits and plan on releasing my women's fiction/time slip novel, Dark Blue Waves, this spring. Here's the summary: For a student of nineteenth century English literature, time travel should be a dream come true. Suffering an accident while on a Jane Austen seminar in Bath, Janet regains consciousness in her own room – back in Regency England. While desperately attempting to make sense of her dilemma, Janet treads a thin line between trying to blend into her new world and not being unmasked as the imposter she is.

I read lots of fabulous books this summer (always one of my favorite reading seasons). But perhaps my favorites were: The Guest List (Lucy Foley), What the Lady Wants (Renee Rosen), The Switch (Beth O'Leary), and The Rose Code (Kate Quinn). And on the non-fiction side, loved Jason Riley's Maverick: A Biography of Thomas Sowell.

My inspiration came from a 1954 Hollywood film, "Three Coins in the Fountain". If you haven't seen the film, I defy you to watch it and not walk away humming Frank Sinatra's memorable opening song for the next week (or two). The film follows three American expatriate women who move to Rome to seek happiness in the Eternal City. I thought it would be fun to revisit this story with three contemporary women, who coincidentally meet at a 1950s movie night while watching this film.
