Taking my Writing on the Road - by Magdalena Scott


The last few weeks have been super busy, but I’m wrapping up projects and heading out.

Book 4 of my Serendipity series is with my editor, and Book 3 - Christmas Wedding - has been published. I’m so fortunate to be able to write the stories I love and share them with readers. Thank you for making that possible!

A few months ago, a friend invited me to accompany her on a tour of Ireland, a place I’ve always wanted to visit. For me it’s a trip of a lifetime, and completely unexpected.

As you might guess, I’m planning to pack light. The photo above is my purse, one of the tiny notebooks I will carry in it each day, and a larger notebook for writing on the plane, bus, and in the hotel room at night. Who knows? Maybe I’ll even have opportunity to hang out in a pub soaking up the atmosphere and setting the writing Muse free.

I may be the only person on the tour who doesn't have a laptop in tow, but partly because I've been glued to it these last few weeks, I’ve decided to leave mine at home. So this will be a digital holiday as well as an amazing research trip. I'm jazzed about it.

Book 4 of my series is about Alice Williams, whom you’ve met if you have read any of the Serendipity stories. Alice takes her writing on the road one day, and the result is magical. In my experience, that’s the way life is. When we open ourselves to possibilities, amazing things happen. In fact, that's one of the reasons I created the Serendipity, Indiana series.

Have you ever had a wonderful surprise pop up when you set plan-making aside?

December. 1st: Jim Standish has proposed, and he’s ready—right this minute—to marry the love of his life, with a quick trip to the courthouse. But Melissa Singer wants the event to be beautiful, romantic, and memorable. And on Christmas Day!

Everyone in the Standish family is doing their best to help. But they're also busy with the holiday season on the Standish Family Christmas Tree Farm. An unwelcome reminder of the past appears, the dress designer is working overtime, and nothing seems to go right.

They just have 25 days to make this event happen. Is it possible to create the perfect Christmas Wedding?
