Useful Sites For Writers
This month’s useful websites are focussed on travel writing as, if this is the genre you want to work in, you should try to read as much as you possibly can about the subject.
www.gonomad.com/traveldesk/0901/travel-writing-tips.html
A great site for ‘wannabe’ travel writers featuring articles on destinations, food and wine, family travel, women’s travel and tours as well as travel writing tips from pro’s, expert photography tips and trip advice in case you are planning on jetting, cycling or sailing off somewhere soon.
www.vagablogging.net/
This website is run by veteran travel writer Rolf Potts and is jam-packed full of useful stuff, including his blog, travel writing Q&As, travel writing tips and his monthly interviews with travel writers.

And, now that you’ve decided writing travel articles is your dream job here’s somewhere you can start to publish the fruits of your labour. In their words it’s ‘a website where a community of travellers, journalists and celebrities can share their advice and their enthusiasms – giving you the inside story on their favourite destinations – and get paid for it.’
Remember, if you run a website that you think may be of use to our readers, let me know. If I like it, I’ll publish a link to it giving you a free plug. What could be better than that?
