Re: Guest Post - Travel Writing

God, she sounds unbearable.

But several people said the same thing. "You should base it around the idea of home. You should go out and find a home in one of these cities."

HAHAHAHA I just bet they did. "You're going to be travelling in a lot of cities on a different continent for the next few months? That's wonderful, Jessa. You know what you should do? You should find yourself a home in one of those cities. Just settle down and live there. You know, permanently. It would be so good... for the book. That's what I mean."

Maybe it's just because it's been ten years that I've been living alone as well as traveling alone

No kidding.

That's funny, but where are you getting that from?

I mean, I assume that, as a class, many writers can be difficult to live with, but I did not have your reaction to the interview.

Huh, I know someone who did Tarot-supported travel for years, has written about it, but not as a book. Maybe it's more common? I mean, two makes a trend.

I don't know - just a gut reaction.

I liked that she openly talked about how people around her all thought that Tarot was a lot of bullshit and how it was hard to learn because everything written about it by people who thought it wasn't bullshit was clearly a lot of ridiculous, awful bullshit, and then said that that meant learning it, seriously as a real thing, was a challenge. I can think of at least one other interpretation of those facts...
