Guest Post & Giveaway: Eliza Watson talks about her cameo appearance in Kissing My Old Life Au Revoir

My personality and quirks often sneak into my books. Sometimes I realize it, and sometimes I don’t. The following are several appearances I make in my new women’s fiction book, Kissing My Old Life Au Revoir.

I fell in love with Paris while studying at the Sorbonne for a college semester, and I’ve since visited there several times. Being a writer, people watching is one of my favorite pastimes. I have discovered many characters while riding the Métro or strolling around Paris. Every walk sparks an idea for a character, setting, or scene. It’s a city that inspires creativity, which is why I’ve set two books there.

I’m an event planner like the book’s protagonist, Samantha. I’m all-too-familiar with the type of challenges she faces throughout the book—even though they are fictional—and it was easy to make her suffer, which of course makes her stronger in the end.
