How a weekend in France inspired a series of novels

I love to travel and discovered many years ago that each journey I took was a story in itself.

That is why, when I decided to write, it was only natural that the inspiration should come from my travels.

But I needed to hone my craft first so I joined a writing class in the Irish Writers Centre. It was there that I met like-minded people. Four of us started a writers’ group, meeting once a month over a bottle of red wine to discuss each other’s work. It was very motivational as putting pen to paper can be a solitary process. The writing.ie website is another good place to start as it has lots of good advice.
