Thanks, Fiona, for all your good information about travelogues and travel articles. It helped me to sell articles to 2 hotels (and I’m trying to get another one on board!)

I only today stumbled upon your blog as I begin taking serious steps to become a freelance travel writer. This series has been an excellent and encouraging resource for me! I would be honored if you would read my blog, in particular the stories I have posted about my trip to Ecuador earlier this summer (such as http://joyschmoll.blogspot.com/2009/07/if-you-want-to-die-in-ecuador.html). I’m self-taught and cannot express enough gratitude for experienced, sincere, and helpful souls such as yourself. Thank you!

HI there Grandma! How’s it going with your Grandma’s memoir? Wow, what an interesting life you lead. Peru is juicy material for a travel article. Stay in touch

Excellent advice! I found it very hard this summer, while on a 10,000 mile road trip around the US, to write a word! I did, however, take over 2,000 digital photos, and I am finding in looking at those again, that my memory is being triggered and I’m able to write.

Hopefully, this January when I travel to Peru, I’ll be able to write while I’m actually there. No electricity where I’ll be in the Andes, though, so it’s notebook and pen time!

Thanks again for your writing course — what a tremendous resource!
