Travel Writers Lament

travel writing

Jen Leo, who runs the fun and always interestin Writtenroad blog, posted a thoughtful post on travel writing. She blogs about the pay (um, low), the difficulty of making it (though she seems to be doiing fine, with a new book out shortly) and some thoughts on strategy. The post is in response to several posts on the travails of travel writing by Carl Parkes (aka Friskodude) who we've linked to several times. Anyway, give it a read. Perhaps you've no desire to write abouty travel, you might still find the discussion of interest.
