Two Weeks in Phoenix: A Travel Memoir
It started as a simple trip. Two weeks in Phoenix, Arizona, during the 2017 Christmas holidays, where Jason’s family and old friends live. Five years after the passing of his father, Jason and his partner Steven reckoned it was time to make a return visit. But then travel planning took on a life of its own when Steven mused they could perhaps add New York to the itinerary. With airfare creeping up to $4,000 per person, the duo decided on another what about a round-the-world holiday, which costs much less in airfare, but would extend the trip by several weeks. Join Jason, Steven, and Steven’s teenage daughter Zoe, on their 51-day quest for excitement in Los Angeles, Phoenix, Jerome, Williams, the Grand Canyon, Sedona, Tucson, New York, London, Oxford, Paris, Brussels, and Singapore.

About the author
Jason Lockwood
3 books6 followersHello, and welcome to my Goodreads author page.
I originally hail from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in the Upper Midwest of the USA, I am a longtime resident of Sydney, Australia, which I now consider my true home.
Like many people, I decided to start writing books after wrapping up a long career in the software and related services business. Over the years, I wrote a lot of user manuals and how-to guides. Cultivating those skills was a great way to segue into writing my own books.
In 2015, I published my first book: Banana Peels on the Tracks. It's a memoir of my experiences as an English teacher in former Communist Slovakia during the early 1990s.
A few years passed before I undertook my next book-length project, released in March of 2019. It's called Two Weeks in Phoenix, and it's a travelogue of my round-the-world trip in December of 2017 and January of 2018. It was a great deal of fun to write, and it's chock full of photos and amusing anecdotes.
I'm about to embark on drafting my first novel, which I hope to publish by mid- to late 2020. Stay tuned!
