Dear Blogging Friends,
I hope that you are all having a good day. 🙂
I just want to let you know that my interview with Heather Debreceni, host of the Empowering Divorce Summit (Dating Edition) that started yesterday, is now live.
In this interview I talk about how my post divorce experiences influenced the writing of my contemporary women’s fiction books.
The interviews go on for 10 days. In Day 1 Heather gives great advice for high conflict divorce cases and the inspirational Amita Patel offers 7 skills to improve any relationship.

This sounds really interesting, Carol! And I think it’s support that a lot of women can benefit from having.

Just got a chance to listen to it. Wonderful interview! I love the idea of going to a touristy spot or art gallery for a first date–how it gives you something to talk about. Great idea. Not that I go on first dates anymore, but I can always advise my teenage kids on the matter. 🙂

I’m so glad it worked out. Sorry for the duplicate message, the first one said it didn’t go through. 🙂 Also, I wouldn’t have known you commented back to me if I didn’t revisit here. Up until last week when wordpress decided to stop showing me replies, I used to get notifications from them. 😦

Hi Carol, fabulous interview! It was so nice to finally hear your voice. You certainly gave some valuable advice for the divorced women stepping back into the dating world, with your tips on first dates and venues that could be good places to meet. There’s nothing like experience talking. I enjoyed listening to your stories, along with Heather’s comments and insights. So glad things worked out so well, and glad I connected you two. ❤

I usually instinctively suggest a walk in a park, going on a small tour of a town. Having a light snack, coffee or ice cream dates mean a dhort time to get to know each other, step back and then decide how compatible you both feel. Time will tell, each time longer. I think you and I through our blogs and comments have talked a little about my experiences which helped me to grow more confident in the dating world but not happy endings” with a partner. I am contented with my family and friends, Carol. The future cannot be predicted, I believe. 🙂
