Girls Fly!  (Girlsfly.org) partners with authors and publishers to inspire women and girls to write.  We believe that finding your written voice will help you to know that there is support, you don't have to wait to be invited and that "written words have a bigger voice than screaming out loud."  Girls Fly! is partnering with Barnes & Noble for the 2019 "Finding Your Written Voice Tour" with your local authors present just for you.Today, meet Karin Esterhammer,  author of “So Happiness to Meet You: Foolishly, Blissfully Stranded in Vietnam”Karin worked for the Los Angeles Times as an editor, writer, and travel columnist for 15 years. In between, I published essays in the books Chocolate for a Woman’s Spirit and Chocolate for a Mother’s Heart. And—this is a little bit embarrassing—I won a Harlequin Books romance essay contest.   She has also written for numerous publications, including Asia Life magazine;  Chicago Tribune; Baltimore Sun; Christian Science Monitor; Augusta Chronicle; Los Angeles Daily News; Orlando Sentinel; The Standard—China’s Business Newspaper; and earlier in my career, a bunch of tiny newspapers across the country that I’m pretty sure still owe her money.Learn more about Karin here  http://www.karinesterhammer.com/
