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 Three
Hi Everyone!
This week we head into something that might sound boring, parts of speech: nouns, verbs, adverbs, and adjectives ... but these are the building blocks of your stories and sooo important. And I hope I have found some fun ways to present them and play with them. We also touch on pacing.
Please don't hesitate to post on Slack your questions, observations, as well as in-class exercises and other work that you would like to share.
Have an inspired week of writing!
