Bonjour! Welcome to my home on the web.
I’m Karen Burns and the author of two novels, The Paris Effect and Paris Ever After. If you’re sensing a francophile theme here, you’re right!
The Paris Effect is about what happens when you run away to Paris without telling anyone. Paris Ever After is about what happens next.
In addition, a few years back I produced a non-fiction memoir/career advice book entitled The Amazing Adventures of Working Girl: Real-Life Career Advice You Can Actually Use. It ‘s a “fast, fun book” (the publishers say) of 59 job anecdotes and 59 gems of job wisdom. Why 59? Well, because I’ve had 59 jobs. Also, for seven fun years I wrote a weekly job and workplace advice column for The Seattle Times. Making it 60 jobs, I guess.
I love to hear from readers, so if you’d to like drop me a line just use the little contact form. Your message will come straight to me.
