I’m a good week behind from my monthly post because of a chaotic travel schedule, health issues, and work but now I’m back on track! You may notice that there are now ads on the site, which will pay for the annual hosting and other upkeep.
In every monthly post, I like to share the articles I’m reading, the shows I’m watching, and the podcasts I’m listening to. They’ll remain free to read but there will continue to be affiliate links to recommended products to support site upkeep.
If you’re looking for a way to support my work, buy my book, read my articles, or sign up for my courses. Thanks again for following along! Be sure to share what you’re loving this month below!

Reading
I thought I’d read it as a kid but apparently not, so I finally finished Peter Pan. I’ve followed it up with Harper Lee’s Go Set a Watchman, which is interesting to read after Furious Hours, learning about how this book was actually written before To Kill a Mockingbird.
I’ve read so many articles this month that it’s hard to keep track. This story in Variety is about a town here in Georgia where Marvel has staked its claim. My friend Larry wrote this great story about the Stuckey’s brand for the Washington Post.
This story on child suicide in The New Yorker was nothing short of horrifying. Smithsonian covered the reopening of the Florida Keys‘ famous Seven Mile Bridge. Washington Post also covered the unraveling of a travel influencer.

Listening
I have listened to a few episodes of Morbid and there’s a new season of Dead and Gone, but I need suggestions! Lots of travel days ahead of me.
Watching
I started Inventing Anna, but it didn’t compare to the Drop Out, a much better “based on true events” show. The Girl from Plainville is also on my radar. I fell off of a few shows that I need to pick back up. I tore through the last season of Killing Eve and balanced it out with episodes of Summer House.
Loving
My time in Kentucky was really special and I met some fascinating people. One really special thing I got to do is try super rare and old bourbons at a shop called Revival in Covington. It was crazy to think that this whiskey had been drunk before Prohibition.
Working
My first story for Outside is sponsored content, but I got a chance to write about some of my beloved places in the great outdoors of Mississippi. For Architectural Digest, I wrote about designers doing their own photography. For 10Best, I wrote about Milwaukee‘s former brewery-owned pubs.
For Roadtrippers, I’m talking about the Stepford-esque “Disney neighborhood” of Celebration, Florida. I’ve done a few recent stories for Lonely Planet, including one on my beloved Macon. For InsideHook’s new Miami section, I wrote about an eco-friendly tour company in Key West and Frank Lloyd Wright’s designs in Lakeland.
I wrote about the anniversary of Rock City for Southern Living and for Girl Camper, covered charming Laurel, Mississippi and a glamping campground in Bryson City, North Carolina. And for my Hemispheres debut, I wrote about a road trip through coastal Alabama!
Next up, I’m writing a handful of North Carolina guides, a story about eco-friendly travel, a lionfish hunter in Florida, and the charming towns of Ohio.

Traveling
This was a chaotic month, to say the least. In March, I went to Memphis, Panama City Beach, and Houston. The first weekend of April, I was off to Winston Salem for an overnight trip, followed immediately by a trip to northern Kentucky. I was supposed to have one more trip, but thankfully it got canceled.
Next up, I’m returning to my beloved Mississippi Delta and Charleston, followed by a return trip to San Antonio.
