I wrote over 200 pages of a guidebook on Tuscany and Umbria, covering food, history, and travel recommendations for all of Italy. My stories on Italy have been also been included in writing anthologies, newspapers, websites and magazines. ==================================
Guidebook: I covered twenty cities in Tuscany & Umbria for the 1st edition of Pauline Frommer’s Italy guidebook, also wrote the introduction, history, and food chapters, a couple hundred pages worth. I think I’m still worn out from doing this.
Newspaper: I wrote a couple stories of my Italian journeys for the San Francisco Chronicle: Photography and Sinners at Church and The Tale of Two Impossibles
Travel writing anthologies: A few of my stories have appeared in travel writing anthologies. The one in the jockstrap book does not involve any jockstraps.
