Product Description:
In the new edition of this standard guide, veteran travel writers Louise Purwin Zobel and Jacqueline Butler cover everything from pre-trip research on the Internet and at the library, to how to obtain writing assignments for websites, to ecotourism and volunteer travel opportunities, to specific marketing strategies and tax information. Written in an accessible, humorous style, the book includes 12 formats for travel articles with surefire appeal to editors and readers, and savvy advice on such topics as finding new angles for overworked subjects and what to take along on the trip.
Amazon.com Review:
Taking the trip and experiencing the anecdote are considerably easier than selling the story. Whether you want to go professional or just want to expand your audience beyond your family and friends, you need to plan ahead to successfully market the fruits of your vacation. Louise Purwin Zobel, a college writing instructor with hundreds of published travel articles to her name, explains the basics of research, audience, market, titles, queries, freebies, photos, angles, interviews, and the latest boon to travel writing: the Internet. She promises that with the mechanics under your belt, you can succeed, and her confidence is catching.
