A
Start on Your Journey
I
think I know why you're here. You love to travel,
to see new places and experience new things. You
love to find the unusual, the quirky, the humorous
- people don't find your vacation stories at all
boring. You're independent. You like to write.
You're
the kind of person we're looking for at TouristTravel.com.
We need people to help us provide our audience with
interesting, funny, and informative stories about
new and exciting places.
And
if you can learn to do that for us, you'll be able
to do for others as well.
Maybe
you've thought that being a travel writer was only
a pipe dream; that you could never break into the
romantic world of travel writing.
Maybe
you're right...
But
if you're really the kind of person that we're looking
for, you don't really think that's true; and neither
do I.
You
don't have to be a Hemmingway to write good travel
articles; Articles that publishers like me are looking
for - and waiting to pay you for.
But
before you can write those kinds of travel articles,
you need some practical knowledge and skills. Once
you master this knowledge and hone your skill, you'll
have editors eager to work with you.
I'm
a writer as well as an editor and publisher. I know
what it's like to start with nothing more than a
dream and a desire to write and explore; a determination
to make that dream come true...
I
know where you're coming from.
And
I'd like to get you started on your journey toward
living your dream, traveling the world, and seeing
your work in print.

Down
the Right Path to Success
When
I started my career as a travel writer, I ordered
Passport to Romance: The Ultimate Travel Writer's
Course. It was one of the best decisions I've made
in my writing career.
Right
now I'm writing a piece for International
Living, one of the worlds premier travel publications
- And if I can do it, why not you?
In
fact, you'll be doing just that by the end of the
course, with your first "on spec" piece
for International Living. Passport to Romance will
teach you the real world practicalities of travel
writing. You have the opportunity to actually sell
your first article by the time you've finished the
course!
More
on the Passport to Romance travel writing course
in a minute, but first, let's take a look at what
I like to call "The Writers Life"...
[Back to top]
It
Isn't Called Passport to Romance for Nothing
What's
it like, living the life of a travel writer? It's
seeing the world in a special way; it's using your
"eagle eye" to see the world in detail.
It's finding out about new places - or putting a
well-traveled place into a new light; it's experiencing
new things, meeting new people; and putting it all
down in your own distinctive voice.
It's
exciting, adventurous, and a lot of hard work; you
need to be dedicated to get into the top ranks of
travel writers... But success as a travel writer
is very much a personal thing. Let's be honest,
the road to fantastic wealth as a writer isn't always
the road of a travel writer. But if you work hard,
arm yourself with the best information, and persevere
you can make a decent living - a very decent living.
The
real wealth is a wealth of experience; traveling
and experiencing the world, telling others about
it, and getting paid for it!
It's
about traveling to the top of Mauna Kea on the Big
Island of Hawaii and witnessing the most breathtaking
sunset you've ever seen, then traveling to Paris
to add your own unique view to the city as you amble
along its ancient streets...
Why
do you do this? Because IT'S YOUR JOB!!!
But
more importantly, because it's what you love to
do...
Now
that's pretty exciting, don't you think?
How
many people can say they honestly love their job?
Are you one of those people?
Well,
there is no reason why you shouldn't be!
The
life of a travel writer is one filled with fun and
adventure, exploring the world and exploring how
you see the world. It also takes hard work, determination,
and knowledge; of how the business works and basic
rules specific to the craft of travel writing.
[Back

You
Don't Even Have to Travel to Get Started As a Travel
Writer!
You
don't need to travel thousands of miles to earn
money and make a name for yourself as a travel writer.
Look out your window... What's out there that you
can tell other people about? You have the perspective
of a local that no outsider can bring to your home
town, or city, or even state. You're an expert,
and people are looking for experts to tell them
what to do, where to go, and what to look out for
when they travel to your town, city, or region.
In
fact, that's a great way to get started as a travel
writer, just by writing about what you already know!
[Back to top]
Are
the Odds Stacked Against You?
There
are a lot of people that would love to be "paid
to be on vacation". A lot of people try. As
editor and publisher of The
Traveler, I see a lot of well intentioned people
that just miss the mark when it comes to travel
writing... I started The Traveler to give a venue
to new writers, a chance at a first clip, a fist
check... a start; to give you a first.
But
even the humble beginning I am able to give, I can
not give to all... And if you have the ambition
and desire to get published in a National Geographic
or a Conde Naste, then you're really up against
stiff competition... You're up against the best!
Without
the proper training and skills, your chances of
getting published in the top travel publications
are slim to none...
Those
are the cold hard facts. The good news is that you
can develop your skills and learn what you need
to know to succeed as a travel writer. You can put
the odds in your favor.
[Back

You've
Come to the Right Place
With
the Passport to Romance travel writing course, you'll
give yourself the edge from the very beginning...
You'll give yourself the best chance you possibly
can to succeed as a travel writer.
You'll
learn...
- The
7 templates for successful travel articles
- How
to know your audience and write to them
- How
to take one story and turn it into several articles
- The
10 keys to successful travel writing
- How
t o develop your "eagle eye"
- How
to Make Editors Happy
And
so much more!
Let
me explain why I am so confident that the Passport
to Romance travel writing course can be the key
to your success as a travel writer.

You'll
Learn From the Best
I've
had the pleasure and privilege of learning from
and working with Jen Stevens for some time... I
first met Jen several years ago when she was an
instructor at the American
Writers & Artists Institute. I was immediately
impressed with her writing talent and her knowledge
of the writing business, and most importantly, her
ability to teach the skills and knowledge required
for success as a travel writer. At that time she
was the editor of Island Properties Report and a
contributing editor at International
Living - where she worked as editor-in-chief
for some years; Since that time she's continued
her career as a freelance writer. She's a great
writer and editor, she knows the business, she knows
her stuff...
That's
why International Living ask her to write the ultimate
travel writing course; The Passport to Romance travel
writing course.
Kathleen
Peddicord, the publisher at International Living,
has the task that all publishers have... finding
great stories to publish, week after week, month
after month, year in and year out... Sure, she gets
plenty of submissions - she's swamped, in fact Unfortunately,
a lot of it (most of it)just isn't up to the standards
or needs of International Living.
So
Kathleen contacted Jen Stevens to discuss the problem....
"What
can we do to make sure a steady stream of good stories
keeps coming in? I need an elite corps of freelance
writers that know how to write great travel articles!"
And
from this beginning the Passport to Romance travel
writing course was born.
The
course is packed with all that Jen knows from her
years of writing travel stories and editing travel
publications. .
- How
to imagine stories that will sell all the time
- How
to have story ideas delivered to you
- How
to research any subject
- The
12 secrets to successful interviews
Jen
has produced a real world blueprint to success.
This isn't a theoretical discourse on what should
work, taught in a stuffy college classroom costing
thousands of dollars; it's a practical guide to
what does work. And not only that, the instructors
and writers at the American Writers & Artists
Institute are always there to help, cajole, and
guide you toward your success.
By
the end of the course you'll have the confidence
and skills needed to submit your work to the top
travel publications. And that's exactly what you'll
do! You'll submit your best work for consideration
in International Living. And they'll work with you
until you're doing the best work you possibly can.
By
the end of this course, you may have already sold
your first article! Your career as a travel writer
will be launched!

Capture
a Picture, Tell a Story!
They
say that a picture is worth a thousand words...
Well, if it's the right picture, that could be true
- literally!
Just
as editors and publishers are looking for good travel
articles, they also need pictures to go along with
those stories... You'll make your articles more
marketable by offering photos and you'll open up
new streams of income by selling your photographs
to "stock houses" that buy your images
for their clients use...
As
a special bonus to The Passport to Romance, you'll
receive supplement on how to get paid for your photography.
This information could be worth hundreds or maybe
even thousands of extra dollars to you as you embark
on your journey as a freelance travel writer.
Let
me tell you that for me personally, I find the greatest
joy in exploring a new place and finding the perfect
picture that captures the essence of my new experience...
Travel
writing and photography go hand in hand, and The
Passport to Romance gives you the scoop on all of
it!

to put my own money on the line. (I pay $40 for
