Can’t wait to read your novel! Also, how very cool that your editor did all of that for you, especially the timeline of each character month-by-month!! If I were to do that on my own for my novel I think it would take me a year 🤣 hubs and I are about to take a trip to Shanghai next month (my first trip anywhere in Asia!) I can’t wait!!! PS: your kiddos are ADORABLE!!

Would love some! Restaurants not to miss/museums/shopping… I’ll take whatever you got! I’m stuck on the idea of finding a piece of antique jade jewelry 🙄🙄🙄

If you want to splurge, definitely a dinner (or lunch) on the Bund - Hakkasan, Mr and Mrs Bund... Xintiandi Style for some stylish local designer clothing... South Bund Fabric Market for custom tailored outfits or just some market-type fun shopping...

Sounds great! It’s very safe right? Am I good to wander with a camera? I’m a seasoned traveler of Europe and the Middle East but this is new territory

Very, very safe. I forgot my iPhone in a restaurant and went back to get it that night; the staff had saved it, waiting for me.

Amazing!!

One more question- if I were to do a day trip hoping for some immersion in non-touristy “real” China, where should I head?

Actually two more…🤣… where did you grow up in the states? Are your kiddos learning Chinese English and Korean??
