What to Expect…

Those who buy our programs -- people from all walks of life and all levels of education and experience -- have successfully reinvented themselves. Financial consultants… university professors… travel agents... acupuncturists… actresses… photographers... today they are traveling the world and getting paid for it.

You could be too.

Take Tim O'Reilly. He's a great example of how quickly members of our program can break into the travel writing industry.

As a freelance photograph, Tim was already a regular traveler who wanted a way to make money from his journeys. Travel writing seemed like the perfect fit.

Just two months after finishing the Ultimate Travel Writer's program, Tim used what he'd learned to land his first full-length feature story—a piece on the Mayan World that appeared in Vision Magazine. Since then Tim has written several more cover stories for Vision, and sold his photos with them.

And Tim's not the only successful member who is a working travel writer today.

Loren Worthington had no proven writing skills before he took advantage of this very same opportunity. Now he can boast several published articles -- and paychecks along with them. Plus, just recently, he arranged to take a complimentary, high-speed ride down the Olympic bobsled track in Utah.  He's now working on an article about his "adrenalin travels," which he'll sell to a travel publication for a by-line and a check.

More than Just a Program:
Proven, Practical, Excellent Advice

If all our programs did for you was open a door to this exciting profession, you’d have every reason to be pleased... and proud of your decision to become a member. But here at the American Writers & Artists Inc (AWAI) we strive to do more...

As a member you have access to our exclusive Member Forum, where you can post your questions, get feedback on your articles, and simply "talk shop" with other members. Learning a new skill can be daunting, no doubt about it. But with our program, you'll never feel isolated or be left wondering if you're doing something right. This program will provide a whole support network.

Our free weekly e-letter, The Right Way to Travel, (you can subscribe right here on the website) will help you stay motivated, too. In it you'll find material to help you improve your writing, news about what your fellow members are up to, notes on the best ways to explore the world and sell your stories, and profiles of markets where you might get your articles published.

In a matter of months -- even weeks -- you could be exploring the world as a VIP... earning paychecks while you travel... taking your vacations as a tax write-off... and seeing your name in print...

Some Insider Help to Get Your First Assignment

Plus there's something else... something critical that further distinguishes this program from any other. Because we've worked with a number of editors over the years that strongly believe in this program certain publications have agreed to give special consideration to articles written by our members.

In other words, they'll put submissions from people who have completed the program on the top of the in-box pile -- to give you a foot-in-the-door, as it were.

What it means is that you'll have real practice excercises as you journey though this adventure, not just some made up work. And if the editors like your stories, they'll publish them with your by-line… and pay you for them, too.

It's a fantastic opportunity to get your first story under your belt, get over the "hump" of having your first "clip" published with your name on it so you can start building your new career... and enjoying all the prestige and perks that come with it...

Feel free to call (561-278-5557 or toll-free 866-879-2924) or email us at memberservices@awaionline.com with questions pertaining to the material as you move through the course. Remember, we are committed to your success. So take advantage of the resources offered to get your career going!

You Don't Even Have to Leave Home

There's something else, too, which you may not realize: To make some extra money, and to have great travel experiences, you don't even have go far from home if you don't want to.

You can get paid to write about a place that's a few minutes from your own home... no matter where in the world you live. Your hometown is a "destination" for somebody, after all.

I know of one Florida-based freelancer who's made a business of writing stories about places within easy reach of her home -- an article about Amelia Island for a Canadian newspaper... one on Jacksonville for the Miami Herald... a piece on the town of Cassadaga for Florida Travel magazine... an article about winter golf in Florida for a lifestyle magazine... and the list goes on.

I bet you can think of all sorts of worthwhile subjects you might write about just outside your own door. And who better to write about your own hometown... than you?

One Last Thing:
There’s Absolutely No Pressure On You
And You Learn At Your Own Speed

In the privacy and comfort of your own home, you’ll learn at your own pace. You move on to the next step only when you’re completely comfortable with what you just read. And don’t worry about “getting it right” the first time. It doesn’t have to be perfect—that’s the point of learning. We don’t expect it to be. And we assume that you don’t have any prior writing experience. Our instructors will gently and fairly steer you in the right direction.
