‘Undomesticated,’ New Online Travel Publication for Women Launches; Targets Women Who Live Boldly in the World

TUCSON, Ariz., Oct. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Undomesticated, a new online publication for women who live boldly in the world, has officially launched today.

Undomesticated, created by authors Tiffany Hawk, Yi Shun Lai and Susan Blumberg-Kason, will feature spirited and varied content including travel essays, book reviews and interviews, as well as feature stories written by a diverse list of contributors from around the globe.

In addition to interviews and travel stories covering far-flung destinations, launch content includes essays by Ava Homa, an award-winning Kurdish writer living in exile and Kiratiana Freelon, a social-justice reporter in Rio de Janeiro.

How did Undomesticated come about?

They were talking with a New York-based agent about a book set in Hong Kong, when the agent gave some well-intended advice – “books by women do better when they’re domestic.” They tried to rationalize her comment, “Surely, she didn’t mean women belong in the home? Just… in the country?”

“Either way, no. Hell no,” said Hawk. “We don’t have to accept such outdated nonsense. With Undomesticated, we’re helping like-minded women find the bigger, more audacious stories they want to read.”
