I found an audience as the travel editor of a monthly outdoor publication with my humorous narratives. Travel writing should be fun, not just a checklist of what to do. Add children to the mix and family travel becomes an unpredictable yet gratifying adventure. I write about the real story, infusing levity as I highlight the best that destinations have to offer.
My young children have traveled all over the Western United States, Mexico and Canada and I am always on the lookout for family-friendly destinations. We may occasionally receive discounted or complimentary rates on hotels and services, which I disclose while striving to give an accurate review.
In addition to publishing articles on my personal blog, my writings regularly appear in the Family Travel section of The Denver Post’s Mile High Mamas and I also freelance for various travel publications and blogs. As all my writings are personal narratives, I do not write about destinations I have not personally visited. To see an example of my work, be sure to read this compilation of my favorite articles as well as my family’s Tour de Colorado, a series of road trips that highlighted the best that Colorado has to offer.
And also divulged a few of my family’s worst (but utterly hilarious) moments.
