Writing on Camels

In November 2014, six writers headed out into the Saharan desert near the great Erg Chebbi sand dune. Our home for 8 days and nights was Cafe Tissardmine, an artist's retreat and guest house nearby. The desert became our inspiration as we wrote the days away, not even stopping as we rode our camels...

Look ma, no hands!




Writing on camels, why not!




I could write like this all day!




Just another day in the saddle!
