We’re live! Supergringa in Spain: a Travel Memoir is ready to be born. The Writers’ Institute Conference is in three weeks. Two agents, two chances at representation for the memoir with publishers. What is Supergringa about? A silly señorita travels abroad to visit a friend stationed in Germany and study in Toledo, Spain. Her solo voyage transforms her from a shrinking violet into a confident woman ready to take on the complexities of life.

One semester of experience in 1987, twenty years of life and ten years of writing have prepared me for this moment. I’ll grab my fake flamenco and I’ll be off to the conference. Thanks to all the writer friends and professor Laurie who gave me feedback on the manuscript!
