Mark & Betsy Blondin

Writers. Editors. Publishers. Travelers.

Betsy and Mark in Amsterdam

Thirty years of making things — books, publications, websites, businesses. We published our first website in 1996, from a motorhome, before anyone had a word for it. We have lived and worked in three continents since 2010. We are based in Vila do Conde, Portugal.

Our Story — Who we are and what we each do
Our Journey — Assignment America, 1996–1997
Our Work — WordMetroPress, WordMetro, and our books
