Experience
Eben Diskin is a travel writer, amateur pizza connoisseur, and avid indoorsman. While traveling, he pretends to enjoy things like hiking, camping, fine dining, and museums, when all he really wants to do is drink Jack and Cokes at the hotel bar. He has a degree in History from Wheaton College and a definitely-not-useless Master's in Fiction Writing from the University of Edinburgh.
Education
He earned a BA in history from Wheaton College, and an MFA in creative writing from the University of Edinburgh. Classroom experiences prepared him for a career in writing, and the pursuit of a grad degree abroad stoked a love of travel.
