The signs are everywhere, you just have to be open to seeing them.

So, I was cleaning out my wallet and came across this business card from a restaurant In DC I'd dined at with a friend last summer. I was struck by the name - which meant nothing at all to me last summer - but is extremely significant now because in my new novel #TheBookOfHarlan there's an entire chapter dedicated to that French city for which the restaurant chose its name. Serendipity? Maybe. All I can do is smile.
