"Travel makes me feel so alive." She smiled.

"I can't wait to see your slides," I told her. I meant it, too. I'm the only person I know who actually enjoys seeing other people's travel slide shows.

"Great. Where will it be published?"

"The woman who puts out our monthly church bulletin told me she'll print anything I send her. I guess my writing career is under way." She leaned toward me, elbows on knees.

"Do you think I can make a career as a travel writer?"
