sevenswellsF-list, I need you!
I'm looking for an Irish pen-pal for research purposes -- I'm currently writing a novel that's partly set in Ireland, and I would like to exchange e-mails with someone who grew up there to tell me about their experience and what contemporary Ireland is like to them (nothing political or too personal if you're uncomfortable about that, even a general overview would be fine). I've never been to Ireland and I would like to avoid clichés if possible; I'll do my own research of course but I feel that a personal testimony of an Irish person (or at least someone who grew up or spent most of their lives there) would be precious.
If you know an Irish person who would be interested to share, please give them my contact: kama_apsara at yahoo dot fr
If you want to know a little more about me, I'm Maëva, I'm a 29 year-old female comics author who lives in Paris and whose main language is French; I love mythology, food (cooking and eating and reading and writing about food), comic books and action flicks. I have written short stories as well as comic books published in France and now I want to try my hand at an urban fantasy novel.
There is not a lot of retribution I can promise for your help, but you will be thanked in my book, and if you want I can draw you something of your choice (here's a sample of my drawing style: http://chibilou.deviantart.com/ )
Don't hesitate to signal-boost this post, any help is immensely appreciated!
