Did you enter Red Room’s ghost story contest for a chance to win Detours? Here’s another chance—from yours truly—to win a copy before its official release date next month.
Detours is in part a road trip novel. A lot has been said by people smarter than me about the positive benefits of travel:
- Mark Twain: “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.”
- Lao Tzu: “A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving.”
- J.R.R. Tolkien: “Not all those who wander are lost.”
- St. Augustine: “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.”
- Martin Buber: “All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware.”
Between now and November 6, tell me about your most favorite place you’ve ever visited. It could be your favorite city, a little cabin on the upper peninsula in Michigan—even a fantastic corner in your local library where you can sit and take down a book and be transported.
Leave a comment here or send your e-mail to jeffrey at jeffrey-ricker dot com. I’ll pick one and mail you a signed copy of Detours.
I’m looking forward to hearing about all the places you’ve been!
