Update #4: Interview with Erodoto108
Hi Friends!
I'm excited to let you know that I'll be including an interview with members of the editorial staff of Erodoto108 in Positano: Dream Place! Erodoto108 is an Italian travel magazine whose goal is to promote "awareness and [be] able to communicate the values of other cultures through the eyes of travelers of the present and the past."
In the interview, they discuss the nature of travel writing, the current state of Italy, and their own tips for successful travel in Italy. The interview is in English.
Even if you don't speak much Italian (like me!), I bet you'll still appreciate the beautiful design of their most recent publication, which is available for free download on their homepage.
Shout out to fellow Kickstarter Emile Klein for introducing me to Erodoto108.
Thanks everyone!
Kristen
Update #3: New Blog
Hi Friends,
First, I want to thank everyone who has contributed since my last update:
Thank you!
Second, there's a new blog post up at my Positano blog for you to check out. It's about Jack Finney's book Time and Again and about interweaving text and image in travel writing as well as what happens when there are really a lot of details in your narrative.
Wherever you are, I hope the weather is treating you well!
Thanks again,
Kristen

I'm a writer, an artist, and until recently, an educator. I’m fascinated by the conundrums of travel writing and time travel. I have one cat who is appropriately named Genghis Khan.
