Last year I wrote a long essay on travel writing - the misunderstood workings and the under-appreciated triumphs of those who practice it - which was accepted by The Wilson Quarterly.

It appeared at the beginning of January in the winter issue. I received one e-mail, from a fellow travel writer, commenting on the piece. The magazine sent me one letter which they had received about it.

This past Monday World Hum, the online travel magazine, ran the piece. It received about a dozen comments, and I got e-mails from friends I had not heard from in years. On Wednesday it was linked to by Arts & Letters Daily, which garnered more reactions. I received two e-mails from radio stations - one in San Francisco, one in Melbourne, Australia - requesting interviews. Then yesterday, The New Yorker online linked to the piece. At the moment it has received 29 comments on World Hum and may get more because - just as Gary Shandling said he would do if he ever experienced priapism for more than four hours - I'm calling everybody.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace.

Hi would you mind letting me know which webhost you’re utilizing?

I’ve loaded your blog in 3 completely different browsers and I must say this blog loads a
lot quicker then most. Can you recommend
a good hosting provider at a fair price? Thank you, I appreciate
it!
