No Longer Waiting

I used to have a line in my bio that said I was “waiting for Conde Nast to call.” Well, that has happened, in a few different ways over the past few years, though please don’t think I was just sitting at home wishing, I actually did some things that caused it to happen. Anyway, it happened again recently, more in the original way I’d hoped for and now, I’m a regular contributor to Conde Nast Traveler’s The Daily Traveler.

I’m essentially writing postcards — a photo plus a detailed caption that’s kind of a micro-story of 100 words. It’s a gig that was designed especially for me and combines two things I love, photography and pithy remarks. It’s also hugely challenging, the limited word count makes me choose every single letter with extreme care, but so far, I’m enjoying it tremendously. I hope you’ll check out what I do there and, if you like it, leave a comment saying so. If you’d like to know more, here’s a Q&A. And here are my first and second posts.

  1. That is truly excellent. Your writing and photographs deserve a wider audience, and I think you have really earned it.
