Sometimes it goes up, sometimes it goes down. Sometimes it&#8217;s exhausting, but in between it&#8217;s pure pleasure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An important difference is the fact that I am alone while writing,  but on the East Coast Trail I had the pleasure to chat with Ruth and share my impressions with her. I always think that&#8217;s nice! We spurred each other on or complained together about another climb when we were already tired. And of course, afterwards, we were happy about the great experience together.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bernadettecalonego.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/ECT7-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2798\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bernadettecalonego.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/ECT7-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bernadettecalonego.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/ECT7-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bernadettecalonego.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/ECT7-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bernadettecalonego.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/ECT7-1536x865.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.bernadettecalonego.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/ECT7.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For my happiness as a writer, I have to wait until the publication of a book.

It&#8217;s always a very special moment and I&#8217;m really looking forward to it. The paperback will be released on October 30 and the e-book on November 21.
