Just a very quick post...

 

I recently launched my new website, www.jenniferbarclaybooks.com, but I realised that all my books direct people to this blog, which hasn't been updated for ages. Hence this little post, which will have to suffice for now.

I'm writing this on a calm, beautiful evening in late October, from my home on Tilos. All I can hear right now is the sea, waves crashing on the shore.

I am trying to finish a new book about life here with Lisa my dog since I moved to this house. I've booked an editor to work with me from the middle of November. I'm hoping to have it in a fit state to self-publish by early next summer. 

Life has been challenging this year since I lost my dad. But this is what I love doing, and I've met so many lovely readers over the last few months who appreciate reading about island life, that it feels like a positive goal. 

Thank you for your support. I wish you all health and happiness!

    Jennifer, vous ne me connaissez pas, mais moi je vous connais ! Je viens depuis 2018 plusieurs fois par ans à Tilos (un petit break entre 2020 et 2022, Covid et décès de mon mari …) Je vous croise souvent avec Lisa lors de mes promenades, mais voilà, je suis française, parle très mal l’anglais et juste quelques mots de grec ! Mais je lis toujours avec plaisir votre blog, des amis m’envoient vos articles du Guardian, j’attends que vos livres soient traduits en français !!! Je voulais aussi vous dire que j’admire votre énergie et votre capacité à créer la joie partout. Bonne continuation à vous, et peut-être la prochaine fois (au plus tard en mars avril) j’oserai vous aborder. Amicalement, Christiane

    Glad all is well on your island. If you recall, I spent three months on Crete a few sunsets ago. Regret your loss! Winter is near, so stoke up the fireplace and enjoy the forever sunsets. Randall in Florida
