In the 2000s, Llewellin worked for Texas Monthly magazine, to which he contributed many outdoors articles. A writer, photographer, and traveler, he now lives in Blanco, from where he continues to wander the Hill Country and beyond. Johnny Molloy is a writer and adventurer based in Johnson City, Tennessee.
