Wine, romance, and French bureaucracy – the ups and downs of an American’s life in Paris. This laugh-out-loud memoir is almost too funny to be true!
Drinking too much bubbly. Meeting sappy Frenchmen who have girlfriends or are creeps or both. Encountering problème after problème with French bureaucracy. When newly-single party girl Vicki moved to Paris, she was hoping to taste wine, stuff her face with croissants, and maybe fall in love.
In her first book, this long-time blogger and semi-professional drinker recounts the ups and downs of her life in Paris. Full of sass, shamefully honest admissions, and situations that seem too absurd to be true, Vicki makes you feel as if you’re stumbling along the cobblestones with her.
Will she find love? Will she learn to consume reasonable amounts of alcohol? Will the French administration ever cut her a break?

How is Writing In Your Genre Different from Others?
In a lot of ways I think it’s easier to write a memoir because I know the characters, setting, and plot already. However, I have to be able to look at my life as an outsider to be sure my story is interesting and relatable to those who don’t know me. It’s not always easy to be objective!
What Advice Would You Give Aspiring Writers?
Write at least a little every day. Then edit and rewrite and edit again. Then hire a professional editor to put that extra polish on your masterpiece.
