Well, given the long awaited arrival of the Finding Me in France e-book, my delightful former French neighbour and ambassador of adventure (and book promotion), Jean-Claude returns just in time.
He sent me this photo and I wondered whether he’d joined the French delegation to Mars…
but then I realized space travel would be far too boring for JC. I mean does this look like a man who would be caught dead in a spacesuit?
This is the Sahara desert and I’d say Jean-Claude looks like the King of it all. He dragged his FMIF copy along (god love him) to make introductions: Modern book of doodles, meet some of the very first doodles ever recorded.
He sees this as the earliest blog in existence, and he may be right. I’m proud to be associated with this unknown ancient storyteller. I’m thinking we have a lot in common, perhaps we’re kindred spirits or at least kindred giraffes…
It’s amazing to think about someone sitting in the Sahara desert thousands of years ago carving out their world for all to see. Maybe we haven’t changed all that much. I bet if he looked hard enough, he’d find there’s a rock out there with a perfect depiction of an arse and a red-headed husband. Merci JC, you’re the best!
very cool !
You have the coolest friends.
That is just TOO COOL! wow
I think JC DID find a rock with the perfect depiction of an arse on it—see last photo in series. The rock even has a stylized giraffe with a mile-long neck carved into it. Lovely, with a touch of Picasso. Perhaps even suitable for a personal logo.
P.S. Maybe The Red-Headed Husband should have his own very special rock….
It’s so awesome to have loyal friends like that. By the way, I really like Neil’s new website.
What an amazing friend :)
Amazing man. The desert doesn’t look big enough, hot enough for a man like Jean-Claude.
Brilliant incisions. What a treat for your book!
I LOVE THAT GUY!
Is he in Niger? He is the coolest — and very brave. And such a great friend.
BTW, I plan to take my FMIF to Giverny in May. I’ll get a photo of me reading on Monet’s Japanese bridge.
I just looked at the photos of JC again and he’s wearing Agadez jewelry –he’s in Niger! That is crazy dangerous!
Danger is JC’s middle name.
