A Visit in Toulouse

I had the priviledge of meeting with the translator of Shadows of Montsegur, A Tale of the Cathars, Genevieve Ficquet, in the lovely city of Toulouse, France this summer. Genevieve transformed my story into Dans l'ombre de Montsegur. We shared a lovely dinner of roasted duck, visited local libraries and cathedrals, and were given a tour of her husband's extensive herb garden. A few libraries in the Toulouse area now have my novel to loan, and I know a little more about herbs than I knew before!
