"It was imprudent of us, in the first place, to become authors. We could have become something regular, but we managed not to.
We were lucky, but we were also determined." Roy Blount Jr

"I don’t change the facts to enhance the drama. I think of it the other way round, the drama has got to fit the facts,
and it’s your job as a writer to find the shape in real life."
Hilary Mantel

Sunny Bratislava

I spent a warm and sunny day touring bookshops and city streets.

Had lunch at an outdoor cafe in the square.



Here's the view from my table.



After a delicious lunch and a glass of wine--a heavenly piece of marzipan torte!



It was wonderful finding my novels in every bookstore I visited.

The Proposal. (I'm told this titles translates "To Seduce with Love.")



Kissing a Stranger.



Jubilee Year.



The city is so photogenic that I'll need to create a special dedicated webpage for my best shots, perhaps arranged by category--buildings, people, animals, views. I know I will miss Bratislava when it is time to leave for Prague, and the International Book Fair.
