How would you like to spend summers in Australia and then travel to a small village in France to bask in the northern summer during the other half of the year? Well, that’s the current reality of journalist and author Sheryle Bagwell – and in her new memoir, Letter from Provence, she not only documents her French experiences, but also connects to her late mother and the writings of 17th century French writer Madame de Sévigné.
In this episode of The Australian Writers Centre podcast 'So You Want to be a Writer?' , Sheryle talks about writing the book, resisting her journalistic instincts and her experience publishing it.
