Perfect for fans of Bill Bryson, Elizabeth Gilbert, and Cheryl Strayed, this is more than a travelogue—it's a hilarious and heartfelt journey for anyone who has ever wondered: "Is this it?"
Zach was born and raised in Washington State, attended college in Colorado but now lives in Hawaii with his family. Once upon a time, he worked as a landscape & maintenance technician, a designer in the apparel industry and a manager at a hobby store, but has been writing full time for several years. (He doesn't miss retail. At all.)
In his free time, Zach loves to read, watch movies and (good) TV shows, snorkel, lead tours and read. (Reading was mentioned twice on purpose.) Most of all, he's thankful that he gets to make a living doing what he loves and considers himself pretty much the luckiest guy on the planet.
Inspiration
Zach showed signs of being a writer from a very early age. He read every book he could get his hands on, from Goosebumps to Narnia, Hardy Boys to Lord of the Rings. And telling stories just seemed like the right thing to do. At his mom's work he would mess around with a typewriter and he wrote a few short stories on that just for fun. Hopefully he's gotten better over the years. (And thankfully we have computers instead of typewriters.) All the many places he's lived, books he's read and paranormal reports he's investigated have served to inspire him.
