The Shit No One Tells You About Writing · Taking Big Risks That Pay Off & Breaking the Rules With Intentionality · 14 May 2026 podcast

So we were really trying to make the reader feel like they were in this destination with you.

And part of that is, you know, really, which I think you often speak about in podcasts is tapping into the senses

You know, what can you see, feel, hear, taste?

And for me, it's just more interesting.

I'm a very visual person.

So I love reading books where I can, you know, really imagine something.

Conversely, if someone goes a little bit too over the top with a description or the metaphor doesn't quite work, I find that really hard because I have to stop and really try to think about it because I am such a visual person.

I also think it helps to have been a photographer as well because you're always looking for...

you know, patterns or colors or geometry or just the simple beauty.

And I think being able to bring that into writing is, to me, it just makes it more interesting.

But I often, you know, when I'm walking out and about, I'll look at something and think of how I can describe it.

But also when I'm editing, sometimes I will just say, how can I make this more interesting?

Because it's just a lot of descriptions at this point.

I think evocative is the word.

I want to stimulate people's imaginations.

It was just like a travel magazine.

And so writing, it was still journalism, but with that, it was just their style of their travel.

You know, I would do most, that's the only time I've ever written in first person in journalism, but they really did want to create that.

it was kind of like a day in the life wherever you were and you were walking through a space and just to really make the reader feel present rather than here, you know, listing all of the things you can do and stuff like that.

I think also, like I was a magazine journalist, I think we do have a bit more leeway than if you're a newspaper journalist.
