Children are welcome, but parents and carers are kindly requested to consider my remarks above. Time may not be a luxury you can afford so this tour is a 'quick-wizz' around what you MUST see in Bath. With me leading the way through crowded streets you need not waste time poring over a map or through a guide book; instead you can make the most of your limited time enjoying the basics. Alternatively you may use the tour as a brief personal introduction to Bath and orientate yourself before you spend time exploring further.
The route may vary depending on meeting point but the itinerary will include the Royal Crescent, the Kings Circus, the Pulteney Bridge, and the Abbey. Anywhere convenient on or near the route.

This can be confirmed by messaging me on the Tours By Locals website. A good place which is easy to identify and find is by the big wooden doors at the West Front of the Abbey. A guided walk on paved footpaths in a city environment, suitable for anyone in good health. Due to the limited time available 1 hr 30 mins I regret we are unable to linger or window shop. An exclusive private walking tour of Bath with your very own 'Blue Badge' Guide to the 'must-see' places in the city.
Blue Badge Guides are fully trained, licensed, insured and accredited with the tourist authorities in the UK. They are regarded as 'top of the range'. Mike was an informative, very entertaining and knowledgeable guide. He made history come alive with fascinating historical characters. I have always been a writer, but I used to just write for myself—in my journal—and I would write cards for people.
Whenever it was a holiday or special occasion, or just because I was thinking of someone, I would write these long novelic notes to people, letting them know exactly what they meant to me and how they touched me. So I am constantly challenging myself to figure out the most effective and efficient ways to get things done. As a magazine writer covering lifestyle basically everything from fitness to diets, travel to sex , I have had the opportunity to pack a lot of life into my 34 years, essentially being paid to experience, test, and write about how to be a fit, well-fed, awesomely traveled chick.
Beyond writing, I am a collector of knowledge—experience-based knowledge to be exact. From getting married and divorced at a young age to leaving the corporate world at 23 to become an entrepreneur, I have never been afraid to push the limits, take risks, prove myself and others wrong or right , and make mistakes. For years I have said that the great thing about the mistakes I have made is that there is always a lesson!
Finally, I am taking those lessons and living… But, one of the things I also love about learning is then teaching- paying it forward. The very first quickie, however, was my own personal workout: Soon it was sold into a book and now my videos have over 7 million views! What was your writing process? In what way was it different from writing your previous books? But this is the first one that is really mine.

The first was a book about stress reduction that I wrote with my mom. The second and third were fitness books that I wrote with personal trainers … in their voices. This is really all me.
It is sassy and fun and tongue-in-cheek, but still informative and actionable. It was actually much easier to write than the others, because it was coming straight from my head. I would have an experience, then I would write it down. Or I would talk with my friends and recall old experiences or delve into a topic that other chicks struggle with and it would spark a new section in the book.

I would see how fans were responding to YouTube videos, what types of comments they were leaving, what types of videos they were requesting, and that would give me another idea. This book was so much fun to write because it was active. I feel like it had a life of its own. I never felt like it was work. What was your favorite part of writing this book?
My favorite part of writing this book was when I would read certain parts to other chicks—or send it off to my year-old sister—to read, and they were immediately engrossed, asking more questions and telling me how relevant it was in their life at that exact moment. Seeing the possibility of it inspiring, helping, igniting passion, and even changing the lives of other chicks… I loved it! The greatest challenge was probably editing myself. Hopefully there will be more QuickieChick books, each with a specific focus so that I can really dig into the topics without having to cut myself off.
How did you get a publisher? I have an agent who is amazing—Marcy Posner! She is actually my fourth agent. I have had a different agent for each book. But I am sticking with her.

She gets me as an author, as opposed to as a book. She also helps to focus, and, yes, to edit me. I tend to be an idea machine. She encourages my ideas, but, like a dam, keeps them from getting spastic and flowing all over the place. I wrote a book proposal, then Marcy sent it off to editors and various publishing houses.
Several houses wanted to have meetings, so I flew to NY and met with the houses that seemed like the best fit, and I loved St.
