I am honored to announce that my story Alone, Illegal, and Broken Down in China is included in the new Travelers' Tales Anthology edited by James O'Reilly, Larry Habegger, and Sean O'Reilly, with an introduction by Pico Iyer who writes that "...many, many of [these stories] did what only the most memorable trips--and the most deeply felt essays--do, which is to deposit me back in my life someone different from the person who set out."
