It’s Official!
Today’s publication of my writing debut INN MATES ~ An Innkeeper’s Memoir, was eight years in the making. At first, I intended to write a cookbook for inn guests but it became something completely different. It turned into a first person account of two dreamers who ditched the corporate life in Boston and bought a once-grand dilapidated inn in Bar Harbor, Maine. Chaos ensued.
The inn was previously known as Bass Cottage in the Field. We changed the name – only slightly – and commenced to rebuilding the inn from the inside out. Picture this – twenty nine workers, nine months and no one knew if we’d be able to open on time! A pressure-cooker of a project, stomach churning at times – and the last thing I could think about was which muffin should I bake for breakfast on opening day.
My husband Jeff and I spun a silver lining story from our inn keeping experience. And now it’s yours to discover.
