You’ve gone on the adventure. Now let’s craft the story.

Maybe you’re still writing up your adventures, or maybe you’ve written a draft (or two … or three). Now what? Navigating the self-editing and self-publishing process can be overwhelming.

Write the Adventure is a newsletter that breaks down the writing process and encourages you to tell your story, every Wednesday, straight to your inbox. 👇

Here’s what you get every Wednesday:

💡practical writing advice so you can refine your story and take readers along for the journey.

🔗 links to monthly blog posts focused on improving your writing.

🏔️ encouragement to keep writing when the blank page stares back and the words won’t come.

Why Write the Adventure is different

I know your inbox is already full of writing advice newsletters, but Write the Adventure is specifically for travel and adventure writers who want to turn their experiences into book-length narratives.

My approach is simple: I’m all about constructive, kind encouragement so your story sounds like you.

After a decade of editing manuscripts, I’ve learned that the best travel writing is often more about your internal journey than your actual, physical journey. It’s that honesty and reflection that readers resonate with, and that’s what I help you develop.

Kia ora, I’m Deborah

I help travel and adventure writers like you polish your stories, so you can publish your adventures with confidence. I’ve been editing for ten years, and in that time I’ve helped many writers put the final touches on their stories so they can share them with the world.

My editing philosophy is kind and empathetic. I explain what’s working and what’s not, then give you concrete ideas for improvement. No harsh criticism, no vague feedback. Just practical guidance to make your writing stronger.
