Using Anecdotes - Remember, People Like to Read About People
Okay, I admit it: I’m a keen people-watcher. (Most writers are: we know people love to read about people - not things; not statistics; but people!)
We collect anecdotes and snippets of other lives. If you do the same, you’ll find your readers avidly waiting for your next article.
I love to sit in a sidewalk cafe or at a table in a shopping-mall restaurant, and watch the crowd go by.

What’s It Like Living in Scottsdale, Arizona?
I moved to Scottsdale in August of 1976. So, some may call me a native. But to those of you who have never heard or Scottsdale, let me tell you why it s so famous. It was the winter home of Frank Lloyd Wright who built Taliesin West as his retreat. It was a local favorite of Charles Wrigley as well.

Travel Games
One of my favorite travel games is chess. Okay, it’s just one of my favorite games, and I have three-ounce set with a cloth board, so I can take it anywhere. The last time I used it was in the town center of a small pueblo in the Andes Mountains. The games below are primarily car travel games, but can be adapted to other forms of travel too. Have fun!
Educational Travel Games
Some games get you thinking, learning something, or at least showing off what you know. Here’s one for the family. Have the driver, or another designated host, asks questions like “What temperature does water boil at?” or “What’s the Capital of Columbia?” or “With sales tax of 7.6%, what’s
