Escape Clauses By Author Bob Payne
As a Baby Boomer Travel, Health & Wellness Blogger and avid reader, I’ve included a book review segment to my blog. My most recent read is the featured author’s latest publication called …
✍ Escape Clauses – Getting Away With A Travel Writing Life
I have always been jealous of those who are actually fortunate enough to earn a living one way or another, where travel is involved. For people who’s careers are centered on traveling the world, would be like a dream come true.
I was bitten by the travel bug early as boy, who was very fortunate to have parents that could afford and also liked to travel. When I was younger, I did work in travel related jobs for a short while, before embarking on my chosen career, which was another childhood dream of mine.
When I spotted this new publication, I contacted the author right away. I was delighted to have the opportunity to read and offer a personal review of his book here on my website.
About The Author Of – Escape Clauses
When people ask Bob Payne how to get started at travel writing, he often tells them that running away from home at fifteen and hitchhiking alone around America, is what worked for him.
In his 142-country memoir, Escape Clauses – Getting Away With a Travel Writing Life, he chronicles how he parlayed that first solo adventure into decades of world travel. By seeking out strangers in far places and making their story a part of his own.
Payne is an award-winning travel writer, whose work has appeared in such publications as; Outside, Men’s Journal, Islands, and Bon Appetit. He was a long-time contributing editor at Conde Nast Traveler, where he is believed to be the only one of their writers, ever to put the cost of a Polynesian tattoo on an expense report! 🙂
Escape Clauses was a Silver Medal for the 2023 Independent Publisher Book Awards, an Award Finalist for the 2023 International Book Awards, and a Finalist for the 2023 Independent Authors Network Book of the Year Awards.
