Whereabouts: Stepping Out of Place, An "Outside in Literary & Travel Magazine" Anthology

WHEREABOUTS: STEPPING OUT OF PLACE is an anthology of the best nonfiction stories from "Outside In Literary & Travel Magazine," an online journal founded in 2011. Editor Brandi Dawn Henderson presents thirty-eight emerging and established global storytellers who share stories discussing what it means to enter a new place; the kinds of worlds that exist to others that we, ourselves, do not experience; and how place and/or circumstance can affect who and how we are. Whether it is the story of a dog musher’s girlfriend, a heavy-metal-loving Marine, an Inner Mongolian lover, or a Mormon missionary living in a dangerous land, this anthology explores the question: Why does anyone take the first step to anywhere he or she doesn't “belong?” Contributors: Vicki Valosik, Hamza Syed, Faye Rivkin, Daniel Gabriel, Robert Hirschfield, Kate Gray, Murielle Gandre, Colleen MacDonald, Susanna Wickes, Holly Morse-Ellington, Mark Rigney, Elise Hahl, Shenan Prestwich, Michele McFarland, Soo Kim, Rosa Lia, Allen McKenzie, Khadija Ejaz, Paula Cruickshank, Adrian Mangiuca, Miriam Vaswani, Charlotte Safavi, Eric G.
