I'm the author of two travel books and founder of Globejotter Tours, a specialty travel company that combines international adventures with journaling and creative travel writing workshops.
My first book, "Getting Lost: Mishaps of an Accidental Nomad," is a collection of humorous tales about things that have gone wrong in my overseas travels. It won the Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop Book Proposal Contest in 2004.
My second book, "Globejotting: How to Write Extraoridinary Travel Journals (and still have time to enjoy your trip!)," teaches readers how to write more meaningful and compelling travel diaries, and how travel journaling can enhance your vacations rather than gobbling up precious time.
Both books are published by Inkwater Press. For free sample chapters and more info, please visit
globejotting.com and
davesbook.com. (If purchasing "Getting Lost," be sure you are getting the Inkwater Press edition. The original edition from AuthorHouse was self-published and the editing isn't as good.)
My travel company, Globejotter Tours, offers small group journeys through places such as Vietnam and Botswana. We explore the cultures, meet the people, and we also have a writing class every couple of days to help people write travel tales and memoirs about their experiences. Writers of all skill levels are welcome, from beginning journalers to bloggers to people hoping to break into freelance travel writing. Full details are available at
GlobejotterTours.com.
My other interests include languages and linguistics, beer tasting, Scandinavia world history and culture, Celtic music, iguanas, and world domination. (Okay... just kidding about the iguanas.)
