No Guidebook. No Map. No Clue.
The story of one traveler's misadventures from Cape to Cairo.
  
After returning from six months of backpacking in eastern Africa, I wrote a creative non-fiction account of my journey. It was a trip that changed my life. I made several attempts at publishing it through traditional channels. It received some interest and I even got an agent,  but ultimately it was passed on because publishers felt the audience for such a book was quite limited. I'm now in the process of novelizing it into a humorous coming of age story.

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused. "Working with my new boss is going to be a piece of work." ** Synopsis: When the CEO of Signature Heights: Jensen Black, and a stubborn employee: Alexandra Brook, clash, it's a battle of wits & a war of perseverance.

adventure story of survival. It's between midevil to fantasy. This is a another story I had on the top of my head. So like always be patient with me when I upload chapters.🤗 Including mild swearing, fights, slight blood but nothing major.
