February 17, 2006, Newsletter Issue #25: 6 Things You Need to Be a Travel Writer

Tip of the Week

Which 6 things do you need to be a travel writer?

• You need a desire to succeed (you have to work, commit time, fight failure, and build on success)
• You need an interest in new places and people
• You need to have opinions (readers want honesty—if a hotel is disappointing, tell them)
• You must be observant
• You need to read and do research (including potentially taking a travel writers course)
• You have to write! It may sound obvious, but this is the hardest part for many travel writers
