PROUD TO HAVE CREATED MORE THAN 5,000 BLOG POSTS

MOST ADDRESS HOW TO CREATE A BETTER BUILT ENVIRONMENT FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES WHILE UPLIFTING URBAN QUALITY OF LIFE FOR ALL


In the past decade and a half, I have created 5,000+ original posts for my blog – “Urban Travel, Sustainability & Accessibility.”

 

I have shared travel images from nearly 50 major cities, where I have worked to increase awareness of Universal Design and Inclusive Mobility.

 

While I have certainly posted on typical resiliency, sustainability and green building techniques – I define sustainability primarily as wheelchair access.

 

Because making something accessible from the start creates a home, office, school, park, store, etc. – the most flexible, adaptable and cost effective facility possible.

 

My posts have totaled well more than 1.3 million words.

 

That’s equal to the word count in 20 non-fiction books.

 

All of my content is posted free, virtually always with my own images – drawn from an  archive of 40,000+ fine art photographs, some of which have been featured at major galleries.

 

My blog has drawn more than 4 million unique visitors, starting with a few dozen per day and now building to well more than 30,000 each day.

 

That number rivals the average daily paid digital circulation of most major newspapers, including my hometown Miami Herald.

HONORED TO HAVE MY FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHY SHOWCASED IN SAUDADES

BOOK PRE-SALE PHASE LAUNCHING AT BOOKS & BOOKS


I kicked off the weekend among fellow creatives at Books & Books in Coral Gables, which will by the Miami headquarters for the book’s pre-sale phase and major release party (October 4.)

Pre-sale copies will be in the Art/Anthology section of legendary independent bookseller.

Statement from Editor/Chief Contributor/Siren Amy Serrano:

On behalf of all participating artists, I am so proud to share this beautiful book with you!

After living with the word Saudade for about 5 years now, exploring it, understanding it, feeling it, living it, listening to music about it, and writing about it through the prism of my own experiences, in the end the word is really about LOVE.

Love lost, Love yearned for, Love that remains, Love of a place, Love of the self you wished you had become and/or still hope to recover, and the convergence of many of these aspects of saudade through the element of Time, time, TIME

The word saudade, in its plural form “Saudades” spoke to me deeply and I believe this emotion, this feeling may also speak to you, it is universal…

Buy the book in person or order it today from Books & Books

Then come meet the artists during the official book release on October 4 also @Books&Books.

We will have red wine and red roses for you along with a few other surprises and we will sign your copy!
