Tucson Getaways Examiner, Nancy Dickinson, speaks with National Holistic Travel examiner, Gina Alzate, about success tips on Travel Journalism with a focus on Press Trips and Familiarization Trips. Nancy Dickinson's experience and knowledge as a travel journalist is a wealth of resource for many Travel Examiners who are just beginning to tap into the world of travel writing. She will cover the ins and outs of travel writing, what the comps, press trips and familiarization trips entail and how to land these trips. She also will touch on how to deal with taxes as a freelance writer, how to engage in disclosures, and what to do and not to do on these sponsored trips. She will answer questions on what you cover when you are on these trips as a matter of course in a day, what are you expected to write about when you return and what do you do with your article as well as how to submit your article to a large publication magazine. Moreover, she will speak on how to approach a convention and visitors bureau, and how to generate income through freelance writing.
