In this article, written especially for
The Family Adventure Project, Lesley Anne Rose, an accomplished
writer and author of several Rough
Guide travel books explores some of the different ways writing
can be a part of travel and travel can be a part of your writing.

We're actively encouraging people to put pen
to paper, or finger to keyboard, and write up their own short stories
about their experiences of family adventure.
You don't have to be a professional writer to
do it. We'll give you guidance on what we're looking for, support
you as you find your voice, encourage you if you're stuck, help
you get your story told.
More details here.
We will use submitted stories to inform our
research, publishing the best of them on our web-site to inspire
others, and including exceptional tales in our book about adventuresome
families.
