"A quick reply... I can say Vendee is the best French region to live! I live here since 2000. The Bocage is quite lush and green like English landscape without British weather (OK, not these days since March but usually it is better). Not very far…"

Ruth Deborah Rey commented on Patrick Durand-Peyroles's blog post Get to be published in English? Experience it now!"Hi Patrick,
Yes, yes, this topic is much more pleasant, for sure. Book will be on its way tomorrow and I'll throw in an ARC of The Sleeping Madonna just for fun. Quite another cuppa tea and rather naughty.
I'm sending you the…"
Patrick Durand-Peyroles commented on Patrick Durand-Peyroles's blog post Get to be published in English? Experience it now!"Hi Ruth Deborah, beside your bank concerns, this slight topic about books might be more pleasant! Why am I puzzled? Maybe not the very right word, maybe just an exaggeration. I'm very interested by this kind of story: real or fictional. Because…"
Ruth Deborah Rey commented on Patrick Durand-Peyroles's blog post Get to be published in English? Experience it now!"Why are you puzzled by the topic of Rachel Sarai's Vineyard, Patrick?

You want me to send…"

Hi everybody!
I guess if you’re reading this page you're itching by the writing daemon. So, you're living in France, a country where people eat snails-frogs, and speak-write in French! But your first language is English, of course. There isn't a fate! Everyday I know this challenge as a publisher and writer!
I might help you for your writing-publishing project, as well in Shakespear's language as Moliere's. Camenbert Cheese and British Ale, Bordeaux Wine and American Soda... My… Continue

Jane Williamson said… - Hi Patrick
I noticed yuour comments about architects being mainly used by institutions here in France, Feb 21st. We have used an architect to draw up plans and oversee a large conversion we are just about finishing here in Southern Burgundy. Although he is nowhwere near as organised as the architect swe used in the Uk to do a large extension, he has provwed invaluable and saved us many thousands of euros, by scrutinising estimates and being able to spreak authoratively to our artisans. We have a problem with one of them who has not finished the work he should have and the architect is our buffer between him and us. He also has the
uthority to take money from the final bills for workl not done or which needs to be remedied. Altogether, I would say if you are undertaking a large project and, like us, you are not spring chickens and able to do the work yourself, it is the safest route to take. Also, you have the benefit of his 10 year guarantee.
