Journal Entries

I have kept a personal journal since my thirtieth birthday. Often it reads, regardless of my chronological age when penning it, like a repetitive and embarrassing adolescent reverie about relationships and experiences that, even if I don’t ultimately burn it, I’m surely not publishing. Distinct from that journal, I’ve also penned a number of true autobiographically stories that I’ve included here as well as some entries I imagine my journal might have contained had it been written before I was age ten.

        Journeys

        Many travel books and travel videos are immensely well done, although no amount of reading about or videos of the pyramids at Giza or a village in India can compare to the overwhelmingly physical and sensual experience of being there.

        My travel writings all seek to convey something intimate about the setting I am describing, to capture the “feel” of a unique place on the planet as experienced at a unique point in time by a unique narrator briefly passing through.
