I write as EJ Bauer
About 4 years ago, a short travel story I wrote
won a monthly prize in my memoirs group We Love Memoirs. As I’ve always
wanted to write, this was so encouraging and I decided to scribble a little
more. I wrote about 7,000 words on my adventures in the south of France (think
driving on the ‘wrong’ side of the road and speaking atrocious French). My work
found its way to an editor at Ant Press and I was bowled over when I was
offered a contract. That was the beginning of much hard work, edits and
rewrites. Eventually my travel memoir From Moulin Rouge to Gaudi’s City was
published, book one in my Someday Travels series.
I live in Australia on the beautiful south coast of
NSW. I'm happily married, retired, mother of 2, grandmother of 5 and servant to
a gorgeous tortoiseshell cat, Lucy. Travel and writing are now a major part of
my life. I heartily endorse the saying 'Seize the Day' and view much of life as
a glass half full - of champagne that is!
Yes I have a work in progress. The next book in my From Moulin Rouge to Gaudi’s City will be about Spain and Portugal in my Someday Travels series.
My
book info
My book, From Moulin Rouge to Gaudi’s City follows the
adventures of three ladies of a certain age as they set out on a trip to France
and several days in Barcelona. There follows a series of adventures, many
glasses of champagne and some amazing destinations.
When Elizabeth receives a diagnosis of breast cancer,
she reassesses her life’s to-do list. Having always suppressed her travel
longings, she opens her neglected 'someday' ledger and takes a much closer look
at the contents. After an opportune invitation from a friend to meet in
Paris, and her sister’s enthusiastic agreement to be part of the
adventure, a plan begins to take shape. Join the Australian trio as they savour
the sights of France and Spain, where no trip is complete without a morsel of
local cuisine and a sip of something sparkling.
