Travel Books and Graphic Novels: ‘A Natural Fit’
Travel Blog • Eva Holland • 07.10.09 | 12:37 PM ET
Whether in Burma, Naples or beyond, we’re fans of travel stories told in pictures—so it’s nice to see the travel book-as-graphic novel genre getting some love in this round-up from Perceptive Travel. Marie Javins writes: “Travel stories are charged with creating an atmosphere, their text inspiring imaginary visuals of foreign lands in the minds of the reader. Graphic novels are a natural fit.” Agreed.

I just wanted to let you know about an awesome opportunity. We just launched our “EL-Contest”. http://www.el-contest.com. The lucky winner would win a trip for two to Paris or NYC! (Includes 2 tickets and a Luxury Hotel. You can live anywhere in the world..)
The contest is risk free and a lot of fun, so you do not have to worry about anything. So sit back and relax, It’ll be worth it.
Each week, you post a funny picture. Invite as many friends as possible to vote for your pictures, and tell them to leave comments to help qualify you. Than every Sunday, we at EL-Talent pick a winner. The weekly winner will qualify for the finals during the week of December 14th through the 20th. In addition, you’ll also receive a number of cool prizes! Even if you aren’t a Weekly Winner, you can still enter as many times as you want until you become one!
Click here to become a fan. The next step is getting your friends to join! Feel free to leave comments and ask questions.
Good luck and have a great day!
