Every writer's dream is to travel to Paris and write.
How do you do that?
Eric Maisel shares his secrets. He proposes three daily writing sessions of two hours each. Take the bad with the good, he says, just like scooping rather than hand selecting apricots. Go to the Musee d'Orsay when it opens and write in the silence. Stroll everywhere. How much French do you really need? You'd need a lot to translate Finnegans Wake into French, but almost none to order a cup of coffee, and absolutely none to write in English. Write in public place—-the Gallieri bus station, churches, in line. Georges Simenon wrote hundreds of three-week novels, Eric Maisel reminds us. In Paris, life is right there, to touch, to smell, to breathe in. Be motivated by croissants. Don't forget to visit Jardín des Poetes, with poems among the flower beds. If Paris did not exist, Maisel says, we would have had to invent her. Just close your eyes. You can be there when ever you like.
