Writing for Student Traveler Magazine Part II

Earlier this year I posted an interview with Editor Jeff Booth, "Writing for Student Traveler Magazine". My story, "Eurailing 101", just came out in their Summer issue. I'm happy to say first-hand that it was a pleasure to work with Jeff. In fact, I don't think it gets much easier working with an editor. If you'd like to write for a student publication that reaches more than 1300 college campuses, check out their Submission Guidelines.

    I was just reading another travel writing site where the discussion boards are full of comments about dealing with difficult editors. But Jeff is a fantastic editor to work with -- from promptly responding to your query to including the writer in the final edit of a piece. As well, Student Traveler is a quality product. Continued success!

    I hope some of that luck rubs off on me. I have published short stories and health articles. I hope to break into travel articles. I contacted Jeff. Wish me luck

    Dusty, If you wish, I would be interested in your story for the www.transitionabroad.com website for which I am web content editor (my father is copy editor of Transitions Abroad magazine). I am interested in any stories by those who haved worked abroad in any capacity, as our web site emphasizes work more than the Magazine and pays better... - Greg (webmaster@transitionsabroad.com)

    Will defn keep your website in mind, for next time. This piece is almost committed to Jeff! sorry. But thanks for this post, I am sure it will help a lot of us here.

    Dusty, just so you know Transitions Abroad is also a print magazine. Since Gregory is interested, it might be worth it to have a chat with him on email about other potential articles he'd be keen to look at or put in the line up. :-) I love it that editors are talking to writers about assignments on this site. Keep it up!
