This is a kind of a big deal. There’s more about Book Passage on the web, here. And Don George, the crazy human who thought I should join the faculty, literally wrote the book on travel writing.
What I’m saying is this: I’ve been invited to join the prestigious faculty at Book Passage, a well respected writer’s conference run by the remarkable Don George. I’ll be joining people like Tim Cahill (the editor of Outside magazine), Catharine Hamm (the travel editor for the LA Times), Spud Hilton (the travel editor for the SF Chronicle, Jim Benning (co-founder and editor of World Hum) and yeah, uh, also, I’ll be there, and I’m, uh, the founder of Nerd’s Eye View, a little blog about travel.
It’s a huge honor, and I remain, honestly, somewhat stunned.
<– So not stunned. Proud? Yes. Stunned? No.
yayyyyyyyyyyyyyy! congrats, how super! and well-deserved. busy summer for you!
Awesome- I went to the one in 2001 and had drinks with Tim Cahill and Bill Bryson. Amazing conference and night!
A well-deserved honor.
Congrats! Sounds like it will be a great experience.
Yay, good for you!
You have been underappreciated for WAY too long. This is just the universe aligning itself properly. Well deserved!

Nice one Pam! They need some offbeat blogging blood among the old print masters, so why not you? Should be fun.
Happy for you!
Congratulations Pam! Well deserved and couldn’t have happened to a more deserving, kind and talented human being. Twice baked almond croissants on me the next time I’m your way. A hui hou.
Way to go, Pam. Couldn’t have happened to a better nerd!
