“This is just like old times!” Susan opened the bottle of wine and
started to fill their glasses. The four of them huddled in the kitchen in their
PJ’s drinking and laughing. . . . And oh the stories they shared, but wait, you'll have to read the book ... coming Christmas 2013.
What inspired the kitchen in my upcoming naughty thriller? A cottage kitchen that would hold a killer farm table and let me act out my own farmhouse fantasy. That's the only fantasy I'll fess up too. Or else I'd go from cottage white to blushing red!
A little bit of this and a lot of that pulled together to make the perfect kitchen space. Photos from Pinterest helped me design Susan's kitchen, the heart of her two story 1800's grey shingled cottage farmhouse in a small town close to Atlanta. As an antique dealer, details are important to me. Susan and I have the same taste, painted furniture, large cupboards and more paintings than wall space. Perhaps you'd like to join us for a glass of wine!
Susan's kitchen is large enough for a farm table to die for, surrounded by eight French style chairs. That little dog, why that could be Daisy, Susan's loveable, spirited, mixed ball of fluff! Pinterest
Who wouldn't love this wonderful farm table and chairs? Pinterest I dream of white at night and soft pastel colors during the day. Susan's cottage is a lovely mixture of both.
My cottage style farmhouse fantasy went from a blog where I tried to exorcize the notion I had to move out of my house, to the scene in my first stab at fiction - a romantic, somewhat naughty, thriller!
As a non-fiction author, The Unfaithful Widow, a personal memoir, available on Amazon and Kindle , writing fiction is awesome! I am having fun with it - perhaps you will too.
I've a deadline to meet so I'd better whip myself in shape and get back to the job at hand!
