Look what I got in the mail…

Translations are exciting things for writers – well, I don’t think I’m the only one to get excited when one of my books arrives in the the mail in a language that I don’t write or speak. Yesterday’s mail brought be this little beauty. It’s a Hebrew translation of Best Friend…Future Wife.

I’m forty, in France, on a first date: HELP!

I can’t believe I’m on the Côte d’Azur and being taught French…by an amazing man! Jacques is making me feel young, sexy and special again – taking me all over the coast from Nice to Monaco. I feel like a superstar, not a tired old mum, and I wouldn’t swap this feeling for the world.

Now I just have to decide what to wear on our first proper date! Wow – maybe life can begin at forty?

For a chance to win a copy of this book, email the name of the largest city on the Côte d’Azur, to claire @ clairebaxter . com. Contest closes end of November.

Romance Writers of Australia Conference

Claire Baxter — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 11:27:59 +0000

In August the annual conference of Romance Writers of Australia was held in Brisbane. As usual it was fabulous event, full of memorable moments, sparkling speakers, and lots of lovely romance writers (both published and unpublished).

The cocktail party, with an Arabian Nights theme, was great fun, and the Awards Dinner was wonderful.

I’ve been back home for a week and already I’m looking forward to next year’s conference in Coogee Beach, Sydney.
