From Michael:
Last week I made a presentation at the Rotary Club of Concord that was attended by sixty members. My theme was, “How my International Travels have influenced my writing,” and I illustrated it with a Powerpoint presentation and several readings.The Q & A session was fascinating with people wanting to know what drives me to write and where do my ideas come from and what about writers’ block. I explained I have never experienced it but rather have a reversed issue, too much to write and insufficient time! People were eager to buy my books as Christmas gifts.
