Learn How to Be a Travel Writer at Seminar Taught by Top Travel Editors and Guidebook Authors

Orlando, FL (PRWEB) November 1, 2007 -- Traveling the world writing travel stories and taking travel photos might sound glamorous, but doing the job right, getting stories and photos published and making money from it takes skill, knowledge and work.

That's why The Society of American Travel Writers (SATW) holds its annual Institute for Travel Writing & Photography, the longest established course in travel writing and photography in the nation. Now in its 13th year, the course will be offered January 25-27, 2008, in Orlando, Fl.

The Institute (ITWAP) provides 15 hours of instruction for writers, experienced travelers and others considering careers in print and online article writing, guidebook work and travel photography. It has been key in launching a career or enhancing the skills of those who have taken the course.

The course is lead by top travel editors and writers who debunk the glamour of travel writing as an extended vacation and teach the course as a career that must be approached with real world skills, goals and expectations.

"Instruction is intense, the ambiance collegial. Relationships extend for years after," says Institute chair Herb Hiller. "Graduates tell me what they especially value is our realistic approach. Articles and books result."

A registration fee of $345 covers course materials, all meals, breaks and social events. Host hotel is the Courtyard at Lake Lucerne, a historic inn in downtown Orlando. Rooms are $99 per night (www.orlandohistoricinn.com).

ITWAP's faculty of nationally published writers, photographers and editors focus on travel and guidebook writing, web publishing, article queries and book proposals, contracts and negotiations, independent publishing, marketing and photography. Institute registrants can also have their writing and photography critiqued at no extra cost. A complete breakdown of the weekend events is at http://www.satwinstitute.org (SATW Institute for Travel Writing & Photography).
