Nationa Travel Writers Month Event

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…

This is great! The biggest obstacle to my success is dithering over sending out queries. This is the pipe bomb up the butt that I need!!

First trip. What do you recommend?

Thumbnail
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

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?

Hot Times on Slaughter Beach

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!

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…

How soon is too soon to start attending conferences and events?

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?  Is it too soon to start networking and making contacts?  What do you think?Have any of you attended any conferences or events, and what was your experience?Thanks so much for your input,Shanna…See More
