I am thrilled to announce that I had my first article published in the November issue of Paris Notes. Paris Notes is one of the best and most literate Paris newsletters going. They have some top writers who write intelligent, sophisticated and informative articles about culture, history, food, sites, and shopping for a Francophile audience who knows Paris very well. Its paper edition has been around for over 15 years and its subscribers are a very passionate and loyal lot.
I had tea last week with editor & publisher Mark Eversman and he told me stories of subscribers saving every issue since day one and how some of them also put ring holes on the pages and literally visit every place that is written about in an issue.
My article is on the visits page and is about a wonderful organic cosmetic shop called Canzi, where the owner Stephan Mottay mixes his own cosmetics and skin care products. I wrote a brief post about Canzi last year, but this article is a thorough profile about the owner and the products.
Paris Notes is published 10 times a year and you can subscribe on line for $39 a year or the paper edition is $44 a year. It is well worth it. Mark was kind enough to have me write more articles for next year, so I will keep you posted when they are published.
I am pleased as punch to announce the launch of Eye Prefer Paris Tours, which are 3-hour walking tours I will personally be leading. The Eye Prefer Paris Tour
includes many of the places I have written about such as small museums & galleries, restaurants, cafes & food markets, secret addresses, fashion & home boutiques, parks, and much more.
I look forward to meeting you on my tours and it will be my pleasure and delight to show you my insiders Paris.
Check it out at www.eyepreferparistours.com
Congratulations!! congratulations!! I'm happy for you=)

Richard, I have every issue for the last six years, I think. I was thrilled for you, and so was Greg.
