Blue Fountain: Stories by the Crossroads Writers Club of Fontainebleau: 1

The members of the Crossroads Writers Club hail from seven different countries including Colombia France and the Netherlands. Writing in English they meet once a month somewhere in Fontainebleau Forest--a region dotted with towns small villages and hamlets--to share their works in progress. In their debut publication youll meet a necromancer who crashes a forest picnic a refugee from Kosovo who bewitches a London widower an elegant wife confined to a Colombian coffee plantation a Japanese salaryman at a turning point. Youll travel to the island of Madagascar; the Italian countryside; a Corsican village; a Welsh mining town. Some stories are based on real events and some are pure flights of the imagination. Their geographic scope and cultural diversity are a tribute to Crossroads the clubs parent organization a nonprofit association that brings together an international assortment of English speakers who just happen to live in or near Fontainebleau France.Authors: Nysha Concannon Siân Cronin Christine Albertini Drew Constance Lindgreen Vali Marlow Kim Pellet Daniel Pouget Kelly Bostrom Robic Yvonne van Roekel Sara Tucker Kirby Williams.
