EP 17: The Cheat Sheet That's my Secret Weapon for Pitching
<p>I'm surrounded by travel magazines this week - literally! After watching writers inside <a href="https://thefreelancersyear.com/courses-resources/ttwa-apply/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Travel Writer Accelerator </a>push themselves to pitch publications they've had on their 'one day' list for a long time, I've been on my own pitching kick, and it's brought me back to a tool I swear by but rarely talk about in this much detail.</p><p><br></p><p>It's not simply about finding submissions guidelines for a publication, but it's a super easy document I build for every publication I want to write for - and once I show you how I pull it apart section by section, I hope you'll start creating your own.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, I walk you through exactly how I build it, while I'm flipping through Australian Traveller, International Traveller, Qantas magazine, Condé Nast Traveler and Wanderlust — talking through how to find which sections to pitch in publications like these, month after month. </p><p></p><p>Love the show?
