In October, I was interviewed by the regional press La Nouvelle République. As soon as I received the email from the reporter, I dashed into town to grab a paper copy.
Now I expected an eighth page at the bottom of the page. I’m an English author writing in English , even though I’ve lived in France for many years and become a French citizen. Imagine my surprise when I found my interview covered a whole page! A bit shocked, I paid the newsagent the 1€ 20 cents and staggered out the door. Perhaps I should have had a stiff brandy in the adjoining bar…
Even though the article is in French, regular readers of this blog will probably know most of the content inside out. But Roma Nova seems to have found friends in France. My neighbour had even cut out the article and saved it for me in case I hadn’t been able to get a paper copy.
