Dear Early to Rise Subscriber,
I'd like to share with you a FREE copy of a report you can't find at any bookstore.
It's called Travel Better for Less: 101 Secrets for Traveling Well (And Even Getting Paid to Do It). And it tells you how to travel in more comfort, for less money, and even get a paycheck while you're at it.
In one of the secrets detailed in this report, you'll learn an easy way to upgrade from an ordinary vacation to a pampered escape… pay not one cent more… and enjoy all sorts of complimentary perks -- from a welcome fruit basket or a bottle of wine to a luxury suite for the cost of a regular room.
In another secret, you'll learn about two easy-to-use websites with great worldwide coverage where you can always book hotel rooms at an incredible discount (instead of $175 for a high-end room in Buenos Aires, for instance, you can reserve it right now for just $89). Sometimes even the hotel staff won't believe the rates you come in with -- but they'll always honor them.
Another secret offers up the world's best shopping locales -- from the place to buy Hermes scarves in Paris (at 50% or more off)… to the Berlin address that boasts 450 types of bread, 1,000 kinds of sausages, and 1,000 different cheeses… to the South American country where colored gems like aquamarine, topaz, emerald, and amethyst cost 20-25% less than you'd pay Stateside (we'll give you the two best shops to head to)…
Another secret reveals a great trick for avoiding the always-expensive surcharge hotels tack on for making long-distance calls from your room.
In yet another secret, you'll discover how to get VIP invitations to museum openings, complimentary passes to local attractions, and even land free accommodation at amazing hotels and resorts around the world.
Details about those secrets -- and nearly 100 more -- are included in this unique and valuable online report called Travel Better for Less: 101 Secrets for Traveling Well (And Even Getting Paid to Do It).
If you've ever imagined a life where you could see the world like a VIP (sometimes without paying even a cent)… discover the secrets of the world's savviest travelers… travel wherever and whenever you felt the urge… and even turn your passion for travel into paychecks… this report can transform your dreams into reality…
And this report is yours, FREE, just for taking a look at The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program…
… a program that will help you discover and benefit from the amazing opportunities out there for traveling the world as a pampered guest (often for less, sometimes for free)… and even getting paid to do it.
It will introduce you to…
… easy, proven techniques for landing no-cost trips… real-world advice for turning your travel know-how into cash… tried-and-true ways to transform your vacations into tax-deductible adventures… and more…
Just imagine if you could slide out of bed knowing your work for the day was to snorkel along a Caribbean island reef… or shop at an antiques market in Paris… or attend the opera in Sydney…
It could be. No joke. And no other resource shows you how easily and quickly you can make it happen, like The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program…
"I feel so fortunate since I have had three articles published and a free press trip to Riviera Maya on the Caribbean for five nights.
"NOT TRYING TO BRAG but wanted to let you know my experience. It really can work…" -- Sandra K.
It puts the best travel opportunities in the world within your grasp.
And it shows you how, step-by-step, you can grab them.
You don't need lots of formal training to make it as a travel writer and benefit from the amazing perks available for your taking all over the world.
In fact, many of the most accomplished travel writers I know started out life as something else entirely -- including one who was an inspector at a bolt factory and waited tables at a strip joint. Yet today she gets paid to travel the world. This year alone, she's been to Paris, Thailand, Greece, Malta, Croatia, Panama, and beyond… all on someone else's dime.
And there's nothing stopping you from following in her footsteps.
All you need is a passion for travel, an interest in seeing new places and meeting new people, and a few simple tricks of the trade -- every one of which you'll find in The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program.
"I got a huge amount out of the program! In fact, IL has very kindly published an e-postcard, "An Oxford Afternoon" already. It is definitely a psychological kick-start for me, so I'll keep going. I'm enjoying this so much."
-- Jean F.
For travel writers, the world is full of opportunities to travel better, for less -- sometimes at no charge at all -- and with this program, you'll learn exactly how to take advantage of the best opportunities out there.

I must emphasize, this world is available to anyone -- not just people who've worked in newsrooms or at magazines. That's one of the major reasons we published The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program… to show you how to benefit from the rich rewards of an international, travel writer's life -- where you really can get paid to travel.
I'll tell you more in a moment, but first, let me introduce myself...
My name is Lori Allen, and I’m the director of the travel division at American Writers & Artists Inc. (AWAI), publisher of The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program. Our mission is to help people like you -- people who love to travel -- turn your passion for adventure and discovery into paychecks.
For nearly a decade now, we've been doing just that… with great results.
Consider these stories from folks who had no travel writing experience before they picked up The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program…
Retired television executive D.H. and his wife (just ordinary folks, bored with golf and looking for a sideline to keep them busy) spent an entire summer traveling across the western U.S. All told, they visited 23 different dude ranches in Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana over a three-month period, staying for free an average of three days at each ranch. The total value of their summer stays? About $55,000... and they didn't pay anything. Not one cent.
What's more, they wrote an article for Steamboat Magazine, a high-end coffee-table publication based in Steamboat Springs, CO that comes out twice a year. And they were paid for their work.
W.V. was a healthcare administrator, but her job disappeared when the company she worked for reorganized. Rather than put up with the drudgery of another 9-to-5, she decided, instead, to turn her love of travel into in income-earning endeavor.
She has. And today, not only does she get paid to write about the places she visits -- like Germany, Mexico, France, California, Arizona, and beyond. But she's scored some great travel perks along the way, too…
In North Carolina, she received complimentary admission to the Biltmore Estate in Asheville. In San Diego the Wild Animal Park handed her free passes. In San Felipe, Mexico, the hotel where she was staying gifted her one night, no charge.
Then there's H.C., who enjoyed an 8-day, all-expenses-paid, 5-star trip to Malaysia, taking in Kuala Lumpur and Penang, all of it courtesy of Tourism Malaysia. She went on behalf of a magazine -- which then paid her to write about her experience.
Let me give you another example…
T.C. splits his time between Manila and Mexico, enjoying the best each nation has to offer and writing about what he discovers. "I'm not yet making a fortune," he says. "But my earnings do nicely supplement my retirement income. And the perks -- fee dinners and concert tickets -- aren't bad, either."
Those travelers are all enjoying the world in a way they never would as tourists. And they all credit their success to The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program.
It's been called "Your ticket to a charmed existence… hands down, the best, most comprehensive program out there for turning yourself into a paid, professional travel writer."
It's that, and more. It's the perfect solution for anybody who wants to travel more (and better), spend less, and enjoy the freedom, flexibility, and romance of a writer's life…
Imagine being able to leave the world of commuter traffic and 40-hour work weeks behind… to call your own shots… get your name in print… travel the world.
You could see and do things most people only get to dream about… or pay through the nose to experience once a year on a rushed, week-long trip.
"Thanks to AWAI, I recently had my first story published -- in the on-line section of Journeybeyondtravel.com. I have two more articles in the works (both for paying markets!) and I expect an upcoming trip to Italy to provide several more articles.
"My thanks to AWAI for doing what I've never seen done anywhere else: giving budding writers the toolkit and encouragement they need to get started.
-- Kelly S.
In The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program, you'll discover how to…
The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program will show you how to turn a standard-issue vacation into something entirely unique. You'll never travel the same way again.
Discover the seven key questions a seasoned travel writer always asks -- and you're guaranteed to learn amazing and enlightening things about a place, things ordinary tourists almost never figure out.
Learn the six important habits to develop when you travel -- all easy to master and fun -- and this time next year you could be enjoying an exotic, jet-set life full of travel and adventure.
The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program will show you how to look at the world through a writer's eyes… and turn what you see into observations you can sell.
You don't need to be a gifted wordsmith to do this. You don't need a degree in English or in journalism. In fact, you don't even need any formal writing experience at all.
If you simply enjoy a passion for travel, have a good eye for detail, and are willing to learn the simple secrets behind delivering a story in the way editors want it, you can succeed, no question.
With all of the newsletters, travel guides, manuals, and web sites I have under my wing, International Living among them, I need a constant flow of good travel articles.
And I'm not the only one. Every travel publisher I know is constantly on the lookout for writers who love to travel… and who can relate their experiences in an interesting manner.
That's why I encouraged Jennifer Stevens, my top editor for many years, to put The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program together. There's no one more qualified to show you how to become a successful travel writer than Jen. She has not only worked as an editor at several major publications, but she has personally taught hundreds of successful writers who started with little or no experience. Plus, all told, she's spent countless months traveling through Latin America, Europe, and Africa writing about the best opportunities for overseas travel, living, investing, and retiring. She knows her stuff.
To my mind, The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program is the most thorough and effective guide to travel writing ever published. Jen created it with input and guidance from a cadre of other excellent, proven writers and editors -- and she hands over the important keys to success both she and they learned the hard way.
If you want to know the secrets of how this business works... and how you can start a sideline or primary career as a travel writer… this program will boost your chances of success many times over.
If you've ever dreamed of enjoying the freedom and perks of the writer's life... then this is your chance to make that dream a reality. I encourage you to give it the attention it deserves. And I look forward, in the future, to publishing something by you myself.
I'm not kidding -- I really do want to publish your articles. How to get a foot in the door at my publications? Start by letting my editors know you've taken this program. It will lift your submissions to the top of the pile.
For years, travel enthusiasts from all walks of life -- accountants, stay-at-home moms, university professors, opera singers, architects, massage therapists, school teachers, and others -- have relied on the secrets they've discovered in The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program to transform themselves into travel writers with no prior experience at all.
And you can, too.
Because this program, authored by a seasoned and savvy travel editor, doesn't just reveal the tricks to writing salable travel articles, it also reveals the inside secrets to how this industry works. It'll shave years off your learning curve and position you to take advantage of all the perks and benefits available to the pros… in no time at all. This time next year, you could be getting paid to see the world.
Let me explain how it's possible. You see, there's a reason why established travel writers are able to cash in on complimentary trips... meals... accommodation... tickets to shows... invitations to museum openings. It makes sense that people would roll out the red carpet and treat travel writers with such respect... and prestige.
Around the world, tourism generates more than $2 billion in spending per day, according to the World Tourism Organization. And competition for those tourist dollars is fierce.
It's no wonder, then, that hotels... tour organizers... cruise lines... airlines... even local governments are willing to spend big bucks on travel writers -- in hopes that they'll have a positive experience and write about it favorably in a magazine, newspaper, or online publication.
The more articles are written about a place, the rationale goes, the more tourists will go there. More tourists means more money... simple as that.
"Since applying the writing fundamentals from the Ultimate Travel Writer's Program, I have had dozens of postcards and four feature articles published in IL. Plus several in e-zines such as Australian Homepage and The Traveler."
-- Brian N.
To give you a sense of the scale of this industry, consider The Bahamas. The Ministry of Tourism is planning to spend $26.6 million on marketing and promotion of the islands this year alone. In New York City, the official tourism marketing organization has a budget of $21 million.
In those places -- and elsewhere -- a portion of those "tourism" funds is earmarked for wining and dining travel writers.
And you don't have to publish hundreds of pieces before you can cash in. In fact, with as few as two or three under your belt you can easily start to receive offers of hospitality.
Knowing how all of that works -- and how to position yourself within the industry -- that alone is worth the price of the program (which you can start for just $49).
But that's only part of the story. "Press trips" aren't the only way writers travel for free. As you'll discover in The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program, well-established writers rarely pay their own way. If they aren't being treated to a press trip, the publication they're writing for picks up the tab.
In The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program, you'll learn the simple tricks to landing plum assignments that pay your way. Find out how to effortlessly parlay one story into three more. And learn how to ensure you're always an editor's first choice writer.
You'll be opening the door to a whole new life where you get to travel the world while somebody else pays your expenses... and then pays you to write about what you've seen and done.
You don't have to be rich and famous to enjoy a jet-set lifestyle. The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program will help you understand that all you need is the special imagination to appreciate all the opportunities out there, just waiting for you to grab them…
“I've always had passions for both travel and for writing -- but whenever I tried combining the two, I failed miserably. Since starting the Ultimate Travel Writer's Program, I've had four articles accepted for publication! Quite simply, the course teaches you things that it would literally take you years to discover by trial and error. I consider it a modest investment for restoring my dream of becoming a travel writer! Thanks to AWAI for providing the seeds to grow journal entries into publishable stories.”
-- Mike S.
Amazing Travel Perks and VIP Treatment
“I need specificity- a plan with steps on how to get where I'm going. The Travel Writing program did that for me -- and showed me how to adjust my writing so it would be interesting for the reader."
-- Michelle A.
Easy Secrets to Writing Articles that Sell
"The information and examples included in your Travel Writers program were so good that I've landed an assignment with an international travel magazine even before completing all the program elements...I largely credit the material for putting me firmly on the path to success in travel writing."
-- Larry L.
Pro-Level Tricks to Fast-Track Your Success
And Much, Much More…
I've only skimmed the surface of the opportunities for fun, adventure, freedom, and VIP perks available to writers willing to report on their travels. And I've only mentioned a small fraction of the practical, easy-to-use, money-making strategies The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program reveals to help you take advantage of those opportunities.
Written by Jennifer Stevens, a seasoned travel writer and the former editor of International Living, The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program is based not only on her vast experience and know-how, but on that of her expansive network of contacts, too.
A Wall Street Journal reporter, an acclaimed guidebook writer, an award-winning publisher, and a whole host of other freelance writers shared their hard-won secrets… the techniques they use to get their articles into print and to cash in on the best perks travel writing has to offer.
Plus in The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program, not only do you immediately gain wisdom and insights amassed through years of trial and error, but you also get current insights, breakthroughs, and immediately useful advice to help you travel well for less, write better, and sell more. That comes packaged in our weekly e-letter called The Right Way to Travel, which will arrive in your email in-box four times a week, FREE.
"This course is from the American Writers and Artists Institute and is written by Jennifer Stevens. Jennifer is a long-time travel writer and, more importantly, an experienced travel writing editor.
"Why is it important that she is an editor? Because she knows what publications are looking for. She takes the editor's point of view. She knows what magazines and newspapers want. She knows what a good query letter sounds like. She knows what sells and what doesn't.
"To my mind, that is what gives this program such strength. So much of it is written from the perspective of a buyer of travel articles."
-- Nick Usborne,
Editor, Freelance Writing Success
What's more, The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program also comes with a special set of audio interviews on CD called Advanced-Level Travel Writing Strategies. In this series of conversations with the pros, you'll hear Jen interview editors and freelancers and learn all sorts of useful insights about tailoring articles for specific markets, keeping editors happy, breaking into new markets online and off... and lots more...
Jen talks with editors at a small-market newspaper, a national consumer magazine with over a million readers, the travel section of a large-market newspaper, and also with a freelancer who got her start with The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program. Today she's a well-published author, and she explains why she did it, how she did it, and how you can, too.
These conversations with the pros offer the next-best thing to actually sitting down with each one over coffee. To the last, you'll find these experts not only thoughtful and engaging -- but incredibly generous with their advice. You'd never have access to these people on your own, but through these interviews, you do. And you get exactly the kind of insights it would take you years to figure out on your own.
And remember, when you take advantage of this special offer to try The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program, you'll also receive:
A FREE copy of Travel Better for Less: 101 Secrets for Traveling Well (And Even Getting Paid to Do It), which tells you how to travel in more comfort, for less money, and even get a paycheck while you're at it. This downloadable guide regularly sells for $30, but today it's yours at no charge.
"The program is very informative and walks you through every step of the way. If writing has ever been a dream of yours, this program will provide you with every little tid-bit of information you could possibly need to fulfill that dream. The resources you will find on the website are priceless."
-- Faith L.
And there's more, too.
We'll also send you a second BONUS, FREE -- Money-Making Travel Photography: Train Yourself to Take Salable Photos in 15 Minutes or Less.
Now, as a travel writer, you usually won't have to worry about providing photographs for the major glossy magazines.

"I've been comped four nights at a deluxe resort on Oahu after advising them of my plans. I wrote a letter explaining that I am a 'freelance travel writer' intending on writing an article on 'Hawaii's Most Romantic Room Views.'
"Although I won't be on 'assignment,' I've gotten some pretty good feedback from a couple of newspapers... so wish me luck!! I've got another idea, too. Something about 'Affordable Luxury in Paradise...Off-season in Hawaii.' I'm sorry to ramble on and on, but I'm pretty excited!
"This could be the start of something BIG! Thanks a million!"
-- Alice C.
Money-Making Travel Photography: Train Yourself to Take Salable Photos in 15 Minutes or Less is a unique mini-course specially created for travel writers.
It's just one more way to ratchet up your income as you travel the world. And while it regularly sells for $24.50, it's yours FREE today when you take a look at The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program.
You might reasonably expect this program to cost at least $1,000 or more. After all, it hands you the keys you need to turn your travels into paychecks. And you could easily earn that back in a matter of months, selling just an article or two. (Plus don't forget the thousands of dollars The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program could save you in travel perks alone.)
But you won't pay anywhere near that much. The price tag is an extraordinarily reasonable $399. And today you can shave more than $75 off that price.
What's more, if you act now, you can get started for just $49.
All I'm asking is that you take a look at The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program…
In exchange for $49, we'll send you the first installment -- but at our risk. Not yours. If, before the end of those 30 days, you don’t think you have at least one saleable article idea, you may return the program materials (in good condition) and we’ll promptly refund your money. No questions asked. No hassle.
But if, as I suspect, you find yourself thrilled with what you are discovering -- and you can’t wait to learn even more secrets to turning your travel dreams into reality -- then we’ll continue to send you a monthly installment for the seven months that follow ($39 each). And even then, there’s no risk. If at any time you decide you’ve reached your “pro” status and you’re ready to take off on your own, you can cancel all future installments.
Just think about it: If you sold just one short article for, say, $150 -- you'd immediately cover the cost of the first three installments of the program. And you'd be well on your way to enjoying some amazing travel experiences.
Nab just one free night's stay at a luxurious five-star hotel in your dream destination -- and this program could easily pay for itself on your very next vacation.
"I just sold a short piece, a single typed page, for $500. And then the editor paid me an additional $450 for the photos. Not bad, considering I wrote it in an afternoon about a tourist attraction 15 minutes from my house."
-- Jen Stevens, Author, The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program
In The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program, you'll have everything you need to immediately launch your life as a travel writer -- whether you're looking for a full-time passion or merely something you do on the side, a way to justify a vacation and defray some of the costs, maybe write off the trip on your taxes.
The truth is, you can turn any voyage into a travel story. Annual family vacations are a great way to start. Or you could easily produce a host of articles from just one business trip. Or you can just as easily write about places in your own hometown.
And once you get your first by-line -- your name in print under the headline of your story -- you won't believe the instant credibility you gain. The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program is your entry into one of the most exciting, romantic, and rewarding lifestyles there is.
The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program can change your life… by giving you more options… opening up to you amazing opportunities for traveling the world as a pampered guest (often for less, sometimes for free)… and even getting paid to do it.
The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program is your passport to a more exciting, adventure-filled life. Take advantage of this special opportunity to become a travel writer now.
