Hey BnA writers,
I just wanted to let you know that I've just started a new blog called Written Road: the inside scoop to the travel publishing world.

Check it out at:
http://www.writtenroad.com

From the Intro:
"Come with me as I make my way onto the literary stage. This will be your back stage pass as I go on tour, meet authors, and ride the rollercoaster of the writing life. Follow along as I try to get articles published, books edited, and proposals pitched and sold. I hope that you'll be able to learn from my mistakes, share in the success, and
be entertained along the way."

It's brand new now, but in a month it'll have lots of content for you to get travel writing advice from. Thanks for stopping by.

looks nice -- I look forward to following your site and (hopefully one day soon) in your footsteps on the travel writers path... Liked the bit about Jan Morris and Don George (I used to know him at salon.com)....

Another blog for aspiring travel writers brought to my attention (other than Jen Leo's www.writtenroad.com) is Rolf Pott's blog, www.vagablogging.net. (He's the author of that Vagabonding book and moderator of the Vagabonding forum.)

Between Rolf Potts and Jen Leo and my own experience, the one simple word of advice to any aspiring travel writer is: HAVE PATIENCE!
