This is a semi-annual, fun event for writers looking for paid assignments. The challenge is to write and send one quality query out every day. If a query has more than one pitch, each pitch counts. It's not so much to see if anyone can actually develop and write 30 quality pitches in a month as it is to provide some motivation and for those involved in the game to network with each other.

Hey, that sounds like a great start! But LOTS more to see and do - that's just the tip of the iceberg!! Lucky you missed the rain - it's been pelting down all over the country ever since!!
But it's good that…
A fabulous trip. Several days wandering through Sydney. We kept telling ourselves we should go to the fancy restaurants, but spent every night at a local pub. Up to Brisbane for the F-111 farewell, which was a classy send-off. Stayed with friends in…
Hi Fran!

My hubby and I will be traveling to Brisbane in December for the final flight of the F-111. We're planning on spending a couple of weeks touring after the event. What are the 'musts?' Outdoors, cultural, scenic. Not into shopping or 'historic homes' tours. This has come up very suddenly, so I haven't done much research. See More
Hi Jack:
I am interested in this, as well. I write about the Delmarva Peninsula, the region between the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic Ocean. Between DC/Phillie/NYC and the surrounding region, we have over 30-million potential tourists within an…
Good morning out there in California. I live almost within whiffing distance of the Red Roost. Doing an article about them for Maryland Life this fall. When did you head west?
It’s ten o’clock on a warm, star-filled night. A sliver of moon eases towards the horizon. The lights from the ships waiting to enter Philadelphia harbor dance on the water. The tide is rolling in to the sand of Slaughter Beach, near Milford DE. And in the sand – it is party time!May and June are spawning time for horseshoe crabs. These leftovers from prehistoric times look something like amphibious tanks as they lumber across the sand. The rear appendage is a long, sharp spine that shoots…See More

I hear you! I've been trying to get more social media/PR work here, too, but it's very hard. Not a lot of knowledge or desire by local businesses. I'm working on selling ads on the website, but there aren't enough of me!

I think it is never too soon to start networking!
I really want to go to the TBEX 12 conference to get some fresh ideas in content creation, promotion and other related to my travel blogging!
Right now I'm trying to find some live groups in DC…
It's never too soon to start networking and building your relationships with other travel bloggers, editors, etc., Shanna. Attending conferences is one way to do that. That said, some conferences are better than others. I'll have to let…
I have a 2 month old travel blog that I have been working very hard to establish. What I am trying to figure out is how soon is too soon to start attending travel events and conferences?Will it be a boost to my blog at this point, or will it be a relative waste of time?
