Completely revised edition of the ground-breaking travel writing book that provides a road map to success in the digital age. It dives headlong into the entrepreneurial world of blogging and digital products, while still acknowledging the real money to be made in freelance writing for others. Drawing on interviews and survey responses from more than 100 successful travel writers and bloggers, this is the definitive guide to creating success instead of waiting for permission.

Blogger, editor, and award-winning freelance writer Tim Leffel shares advice from his decades of hard-won experience. He provides practical lessons from running six websites (and selling one), publishing five books through multiple editions, and writing for outlets like CNN, Lonely Planet, and Outside. If you'd like to earn an income from covering your travels and have a clear plan for sustainable profits, this book will open up all the possibilities and show you the best ways to stand out from the crowd.

This is not a rosy, "see the world for free" come-on book that dodges the real challenges in building a career in this competitive field. It lays out the real landscape for bloggers and freelancers and shows the obstacles to overcome, but provides clear lessons on how to leap over them and get ahead, while avoiding most of the common mistakes.
