I published my first book! Much like the content on this blog, the book features photographs, poems, prose, and stories. It is written like my letter to you from along the Camino de Santiago.

You can check it out here!

Here’s a description of the book.

***

If you choose to read this book, Dear Reader, then we will be embarking on a pilgrimage. For you, it will be literary, but for me, it was physical.

You see, I went for a saunter recently, a long meander of sorts, across the Spanish countryside to Santiago de Compostela. I trekked many miles, from town to town, camera in hand, all the while attempting to live fully in the present moment. I wrote this book with you in mind.

Topics explored in these pages include mindfulness, healing, religion, suffering, and independence. There are lots of photographs, and the text is in cursive; my handwritten letter to you.

People call this pilgrimage “The Way.” And I think walking it helped me find my way a bit, and I’m hoping this figurative pilgrimage can do the same for you.

Consume this book if you, like me, enjoy small bedside companion texts with pictures that feel like a friend you can have a conversation with, for this is not one-sided. I hope you will read with a pen in hand, use the blank spaces to ask questions, disagree with my words, push these ideas further and deeper. And then share with me! I am still learning too, just like you, and I know you all have so much to teach me. We are all pilgrims.

If this sounds interesting, then you are invited to come on this adventure in which we can work towards finding our way on The Way together.
