Confessions of a Paris Party Girl

Vicki Lesage2014
A funny memoir about coming of age & embarking on a new life in Paris#1 Amazon Best Selling Author Wine, romance, and French bureaucracy-the ups and downs of an American's life in Paris. This laugh-out-loud memoir is almost too funny to be true! Drinking too much bubbly. Dating sappy Frenchmen. Encountering problème after problème with French bureaucracy. When newly-single party girl Vicki moved to Paris, she was hoping to indulge in wine, stuff her face with croissants, and maybe fall in love. In her first book, this cheeky storyteller and semi-professional drinker recounts the highs and lows of her life in Paris. Full of sass, shamefully honest admissions, and situations that seem too absurd to be true, you'll feel as if you're stumbling along the cobblestones with her. Will she find love? Will she learn to consume reasonable amounts of alcohol? Will the French administration ever cut her a break? Part travel memoir, part love story, this collection of essays shows the funny side of life, love, and drinking in Paris. Interview with the AuthorQ. What was your inspiration to write the Confessions series? A. After a few too many drinks at the bar, I either turn to storytelling or karaoke. I'm much better at storytelling-or so my friends say! They encouraged me to put my tales to paper, and thus was born my series of memoirs, essentially a collection of funny essays. Q. OK, so they're technically memoirs. But they seem different than traditional memoirs. How would you categorize them? A. Most of the best selling memoirs are written by celebrities, who already have a huge audience. I had to choose a different angle in order to stand out, so I went for humor. I hope people find my memoirs funny, with all the dating humor you would find in chick lit. I also talk about my travels, so my books would appeal to anyone who likes travel humor and travel memoirs by women. Confessions of a Paris Party Girl includes partying and dating humor, while Confessions of a Paris Potty Trainer would fall into the parenting humor or pregnancy humor categories. Q. Yikes... Those are practically spoilers! A. Sorry! Between my French last name and my author bio, I think the cat might already be out of the bag. However, even if you have a rough idea of how it all ends up, you have no idea how rough it was getting there until you read my books! Q. Aren't there already so many memoirs, and ones about Paris in particular? Why should I choose yours? A. It's true, there are some really great Paris memoirs out there. The fact that I have read and enjoyed so many best selling memoirs myself makes me think it's a popular genre for a reason. We're always thirsty for another sip of Paris, right? To travel to Paris through the pages of a book... to fall in love with Paris again! Q. What order should I read the books in? A. Each book in the Confessions series can stand alone, but like fine wine & pungent cheese, they go great together! I recommend the following order: -Petite Confessions: A Humorous Memoirette -Confessions of a Paris Party Girl: A Humorous Travel Memoir -Confessions of a Paris Potty Trainer: A Humorous Parenting Memoir - Confessions & Cocktails: A Humorous Memoirette If you enjoy fun, light reads with an inside look of what it's really like to live in France, you'll enjoy the Confessions series!
