		<description>Hi Kristen,
I found your comment inspiring. I think it might be a good idea for me to post a few of my goofy travelogues, or as I like to say, the incubus stage of Humpty style. It might also be encouraging for people to see these small form efforts to try their hand at a longer form.

Thanks,
Marc</description>

		<description>Thank you for the kind words Lori.

This article was meant to inspire. I know that people can get discouraged by what they perceive of as their failures, and often let those distract them from the task at hand. The piece was my effort at helping them overcome obstacles.

It is a pep talk I often give to myself.

Best,

		<description>Interesting to read about your beginnings.  I too write travelogues and fill unsuspecting friends and family&#039;s inboxes with the obnoxiously long things.  As gratifying as it is to hear them say I&#039;m hysterical and that I should write a book, I know how hard it is to do just that.  (Plus I figured that just because I write entertaining travelogues, what were the odds that I&#039;d write anything book length that people unrelated to me would want to read.)  It&#039;s lovely to hear that it worked out for you.  Maybe someday I&#039;ll work up the courage to try too!</description>
