Maggie’s answer to “This Must be the Place travels to so many places. Did you visit every place you write about?” > Likes and Comments

yes. because once you travel there, you have so many fun experiences that need to be written down. No matter where I go, I always write it down, where I go, what I eat, what I did, who I was with, When it happened, why I went there. I'll write about as a poem, short story mostly, unless I was there longer
, if there's a great story to tell I'll turn it into a novel.

I write about places I've visited, but Hamnet has inspired me to be more adventurous with the writing. I visited Anne Hathaway's Cottage in October 2025, and loved it. I was fascinated by the history the guides could offer, but would never have thought about constructing a life story for her. Thank you, Maggie, for your writing and your inspiration to think beyond what we simply see.
