To start off this week, I asked one of my favourite authors to come on over to speak about her upcoming novel.<\/p>\n

Let's give a warm welcome to the very talented Varian Krylov!<\/p>\n

\"Title<\/a><\/p>\n

Hi everybody! And Bey, thanks for having me back!<\/p>\n

It's kind of funny, I'm a writer, but when I step away from my tall tales and try to write a blog post, I never know what to say. But today, after chasing my tail for a bit,\u00a0 I decided it would be fun to talk about one of the inspirations for my upcoming novel, Fugue, Concord<\/em>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"0<\/a>I'm from California, but for the last two years and change I've been living in my favorite city in the world\u2014Barcelona. It's a fabulous place for lots of reasons: it's part of Spain's sunny Costa Brava, but in addition to being a beach city on the Mediterranean, it's also got mountains, and its urban center is studded with amazing architectural gems, with Roman walls, neogothic cathedrals, and beautiful modernist buildings by the whimsical genius Antoni Gaudi and others. Barcelona is also a culturally vibrant cosmopolitan hub, with fabulous art museums, galleries, and a thriving music scene.<\/p>\n

So, when I decided to write something a bit lighter and more playful than Bad Things<\/em> and Trasmundo<\/em>,\u00a0 I thought, hey, why not take my readers on a little vicarious holiday to Barcelona?<\/p>\n

\"Raval<\/a>Unlike most of my novels, much of Fugue, Concord<\/em> is rooted in my own experiences venturing into the realm of independent filmmaking for a few years before I moved to Europe, and also my life living as an expat in Spain. I had a lot of fun taking these characters to my favorite beaches (where bathing suits are always optional), on evening strolls through the winding, narrow streets of the labyrinthine Gothic neighborhood, and out to savor the local night life amid a few of my favorite jazz clubs.<\/p>\n

\"jazz<\/a>Another of my favorite things about Barcelona is the Spanish men (I know, huge surprise, haha). And I'd love to introduce you to \u00c1ngel, the god of jazz.<\/p>\n

If you want a sneak peak at Fugue, Concord<\/em> before the novel comes out next month, you can read a long, juicy, NSFW excerpt at my website: http:\/\/variansfiction.wix.com\/variankrylov<\/a><\/p>\n

I'll also be posting updates and announcing giveaways on my Facebook page. If we're not already friends, don't be shy! I love talking to readers and fellow writers!<\/p>\n

Besos!<\/p>\n

\"line\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This book... oh this book. I want to visit Barcelona more than ever now :)<\/p>\n

For a chance to win an ebook copy of Varian's book, Fugue, Concord<\/em> (when it comes out), comment below and tell me where in the world you'd love to travel to. I'll pick one random winner on Monday, July 4th at 7pm EDT.<\/p>\n

Good luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
