Hitchhiking through the Murky Middle | Thomas Kearney

Thomas Kearney, the author of Thumbs Up: A Hitchhiking Irishman and 25,000 Kilometres from Patagonia to the Arctic, is joining me on the podcast today to share a bit about his journey of hiking from the most southern point to the most northern point of the globe as well as writing the story of it. I’m excited to bring this to you because the murky middle during both projects is very apparent. As a first time writer, Thomas has a great perspective on the process as whole. You’ll hear how he worked through doubt to hold himself accountable to finish both momentous goals.

Most people believe that books are created in cabins all alone, where authors pound away on some manner of keyboard. Then they hand this masterpiece off to a publisher and it feels very much like it goes down a tube and comes out the other side as a book. By speaking to authors and other book lovers, I'm diving into the mystery that is the book world today.
