Signspotting III by Doug Lansky

.To look for stories the way we look for rain - out the window, in puddles, signs of movement, contact. A torrent of situations, cascading into heaps of paper, boxes situations.The Way None of This Happened.120 or so prose entries from 40 years of writing.Out there in the nowhere.The sound of traffic or water moving through a pipe, some image of the rest of the world passing by.As these known worlds become apparent, the manual suggests looking for similarities.Overseen, as in overheard.After all, as someone once said, this is just writing.

Doug Lansky, a writer and a traveler, has chronicled his travels around the world in his hilarious and vividly descriptive column, The Vagabond. His travels have included cruising up the Amazon on a cargo ship; living and blowgun hunting with Jaguar Indians in Peru; buying a horse and riding it to Colombia; hitchhiking through Syria and Jordan, where he befriended sergeants in the Iraqi military; riding a camel across the desert in India; and sailing down the Nile. Lansky's articles have appeared in Spy and Might magazines as well as in numerous major US daily newspapers. He is also the coauthor of How to Survive High School with Minimal Brain Damage, published when he was just sixteen years old.
