WHAT IS THE TRAVEL WRITING LIFE REALLY LIKE? IS IT AS GREAT AS PEOPLE THINK? I HOPE TO COME TO SOME CONCLUSIONS AS I SHARE MY TRIPS AND TRAVAILS.

Max’s Vineyard

by Kent St. John on August 4, 2005

No regime has ever loved great writers, only minor ones.

Solzhenitsyn

One great perk in the world of travel writing is a title. Another perk is a publisher that has a house on Martha’s Vineyard. Lily and I just returned from a visit there with Max from GoNOMAD. It wasn’t my first time I enjoyed the warmth of Cumming’s Way, Edgartown. The house dates from the 1920s and is so special. Family pictures and vibes fill the place. We had a ball reading over the entries for our second cash grant. Don’t worry; Max, Cindy, Lily and I are meeting again for the entrees that still come in by Aug.15th.

Got a chance to meet Max’s first grandchild, love calling a guy younger than me Gramps! Kate you got a winner with Nathaniel. Thanks to you all Lily and I got a much-needed break and care.
