Greetings,

I'm a new member of BootsNall... howdy all. I've had some mild success making my living travel writing so anyone who is starting out, feel free to check out my site http://www.aprilwrites.com and if you have any questions about the biz, i'd be happy to offer the little that i know.

Now, shamless self-promotion time: My essay about working with entrepreneurs inn Guinea was selected as a finalist for the Backpack Nation contest -
http://www.backpacknation.org/phase3.shtml

the top 4 stories of the 12 that get the most votes will get $1000 prize (resumably to continue their work in the places the writers have written about).

I would love of course more votes for my piece -- but read em all and see whose story makes you laugh, cry, think and most importantly keep on traveling with an open heart and mind.

Cheers...

April

Hi Aprilwrites,
Welcome to Boots!

I'm a big fan of Backpack Nation and the good works they have been involved in. I'll be checking it out.

Thanks,
Jet
