Writing advice is circulating urging travel memoirists to abandon the itinerary structure in their books. The argument, put forward by publishing commentator Jane Friedman, is that a day-by-day route makes a memoir read like a journal rather than a story, and that writers should instead build the book around a central theme or transformation. The piece is being discussed among aspiring travel writers looking to make their manuscripts more publishable.
Why now: Travel writers and aspiring memoirists are sharing practical craft advice on how to structure a compelling book.
