Uncovering the stories behind places
Award-winning travel journalist, former senior editor at National Geographic Travel Publishing, and author of multiple books. Available for writing assignments, editing, and speaking engagements.
Why I do the work
The world's most interesting destinations aren't defined by their landmarks alone. They're shaped by history, culture, art, memory, and the people who call them home. For more than three decades—as a National Geographic editor and award-winning travel journalist—I've sought out those deeper stories, helping readers see familiar places in unexpected ways.

The Pizzazz of Writing
Week Four
Hi everyone!
I hope you all had a fabulous week!
This week, we plunge headlong into dialogue (in terms of blowing life into characters) and the fun side of punctuation. "Fun?" you say. Yes, fun!
Also, next week, I'll be sending out a short video to finish up our Pizzazz exploration. I'll also be sending out a Doodle Poll to find the best time for us to meet next week. Be on the lookout! If you haven't sent me your final 500-word piece, please send it as soon as you can so I can share with the group in advance of our discussion.
May your writing be inspired.
XO Barbara
