But I do love when I get engrossed in a new book that takes me to someplace I've never been before. Delving into the sights, scents, and tastes of a new place in a well written book is the best feeling.Kathy Ivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16440759802997389459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7545210782126483136.post-71510023059654912862016-05-25T15:24:35.119-07:002016-05-25T15:24:35.119-07:00Congrats on the new release!

Nothing too exotic most of the time. Bummer. Haha. Love when books take me somewhere new!

I'm anxious to go back because it's been way too long. I can call it a research trip, right?

I love it when a reader will contact me and ask if something I wrote is a real place. I had somebody ask me about a BBQ restaurant that I wrote about in one of my Vegas books, because she loved it so much and wanted to go and eat there. I hated to disappoint her and tell her that I made it up.

I can go anywhere in the world and never leave the comfort of my comfy chair with my favorite slippers and a cup of tea. Yes, I really lead an exciting life.

And I do a pile of research for the settings in my own books.

Still, for me, there's no place like home (especially with a good book in my hands).Anne Marie Beckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17603878676306179018noreply@blogger.com
