Love the front cover of your new one.
Thanks Annie .. I designed that one myself and I’m really proud of it. I wanted a strong eye-catching image for this 4-book series.
Really nice images designed by you. All the images are eye-catching as well as informative.
Thanks Alexa … I love dabbling with cover design options.
Images are looking incredible!
Thanks Roy.
Oh wow lady, this is amazing!
And how on earth did you come up with this idea? 😀
When you can’t find the books you want to read … you just have to write them yourself! If you’re interested in writing your own books you should check out my indie press website http://www.birdsofafeatherpress.com which is for travel bloggers who want to self-publish.
Hello Jay I went ahead and bought your free writing book to help me combat writers block. Thanks for your straightforward and informative words. This no nonsense book has really helped me fill my blank pages.
Glad it was useful Camron .. Freewriting has really helped me to increase my word count and combat writer’s block.
Hey girl, did yoy actually write the books?
Thats amazing, you are so talented! 🙂
LOL … yes I wrote them all … what can I say, I love writing.
It’s inspiring to see a travel blogger who is also a prolific writer and author. I want to write a book, but don’t know where to start.
The best advice I can give it to write what you love. It’s a labor of love to come up with a concept of a book, write the first draft, and then do copious rounds of editing on it. So if you don’t write what you love, you’ll end up abandoning the project.
wow such an amazing article thanks for sharing.
Jay, your passion for travel and expertise in writing travel guides is truly inspiring. It’s fantastic to see how you’ve combined your nomadic lifestyle with a talent for creating engaging travel content. The fact that you offer free review copies to bloggers and book reviewers shows your commitment to reaching a wider audience and gaining valuable feedback. Your background as a project manager turned travel writer is intriguing and likely brings a unique perspective to your work. The cover design for your 4-book series, which you mentioned designing yourself, sounds visually striking. It would be interesting to know how your experience in different cultures has influenced your writing style and guide content. Keep up the great work!
Great blog, thanks for the informative post! I recently tried crab seafood, and the flavors were rich, the texture was perfect, and the whole meal was incredibly satisfying.
