Why My Travel Book Will be Called ‘Walk the Lost World of the Great Black Sea’
Travel Blog • Michael Yessis • 06.15.10 | 12:23 PM ET
I’m confident it will be a best seller. Here’s why: I fed the titles of the 100 most celebrated travel books of all time into a word cloud creator, and, as you can see, all the words in my title are quite popular.
Readers and critics will love my book. Sean Penn will buy the movie rights. I will be rich.

My travel book will be called “Hunting the Motorcycle on River Night,” and it will star Gael Garcia Bernal.

Hold on, Rob, that was going to be the title of my book!

Let’s co-write, and split the movie rights 50-50!

You drive a hard bargain, Rob, but okay. Deal.

Sounds great!
I’m surprised no one has claimed “Desert Falcon Maintenance Fever” yet.

Okay guys, move over! MY book which will sell millions more than Gilbert’s is titled: “Hot River Flowing South: Tales From the Center of an Erupting Volcano.”

Haha. Love it!
Why not make it an anthology? There seems to be a new release every week.

Thanks for the post! You inspire me! But nonetheless, i will not venture on writing books. I just love to travel and if you will published that book, I’m looking forward to buy that and review the contents and twit Sean Penn if the book is good! Thanks!
