Here are some articles you might enjoy,
linked from this page. They include articles I wrote about the journey for
magazines and newspapers. Many of them were written "on the road", the pay
for which helped Melawend and me move on. There are some interesting
articles written about the journey while it was in progress and afterwards. And there are
some non-Odyssey articles written about yours truly. Enjoy!
Those with live links are here on site;
the others will be here as soon as possible.

Articles written by Tom Smith
"A Passionate Collector"
Antiques & Collecting Magazine (USA) nterview by columnist Jennifer Slawson
published in the March 2005 issue. I include this one here because the
three-page article was published verbatim from my responses to the Jennifer's
questionnaire. In the article, Jennifer wrote: "He completed my initial
interview questionnaire so well and so completely, that this month, I decided to just get
out of the way and let Tom's words speak for themselves."
