Next For Takeoff: Turn Your Love of Travel into Unforgettable Stories

Stuck at home these past few months? Don’t let that get in the way of your travel writing aspirations. Whether your last trip was to South Jersey or South Africa, this workshop will help you to turn your personal travels into memorable, and marketable, tales. Learn to deep dive into a destination to uncover the most interesting angles, get off the beaten path to discover golden writing moments, and even turn your family vacation memories into sellable stories.
