Travel Books
Posted by Tom | Filed under Travel, Writing
My first book Tearing up the Silk Road was published in August 2012. According to Garnet Publishing, the book is selling well, but I have no idea what that means. I am hoping that it will sell enough to merit a second edition, with a longer print run and a more competitive cover price.
I recently finished my second full length travel book Voodoo, Slaves and White Man's Graves. A number of independent publishers have now requested the full manuscript and I have received interest from a couple of major literary agents. Watch this space!
As an experiment, I have also made some of my longer travel articles available for free as short eBooks. Click here for more details.
As well as the travel books, I also have two novels currently in development.

I have recently become involved with Wicked World, a new alternative travel digital magazine. Our intention is to provide a showcase for honest, alternative and irreverent writing, with a particular emphasis on internationally oriented underground culture. Click here for more details.

As well as writing books, and helping to set up Wicked World, I have also contributed to a number of other publications. Links to some of them are listed below:
