Keep your eyes on www.visualtraveltours.com

I've just been named as Executive Editor of a brand new program that will produce "visual travel tours," and I'll be looking for solid travel writers/photographers starting about June 1. We will seek 2,000 tours so there will be lots of room for your good writing. All of the details, payment rate, royalties, and query/submission process will appear at that website in about a week from this posting.

We will be starting a new blog for that program as well!

Hope to hear from you soon...

Need book promotion address labels?

This is pure promo on my part, but a godsend if you want a list of 233 book publishing promotional outlets, 177 newspapers book editors (+50,000 subscribers) and the rest reliable book reviewers, all gathered in late April 2008. We have the 10 pages of lists in Avery label format. Peel and apply!

It's our newest (and least pretentious) product, posted 10 minutes ago at mailto:www.gordonburgett.com, and on our order shopping cart for a ganga $20!

If you have no idea what I'm talking about, bless you. Read something else!

But if you are publishing general market (not niche) books and want to get through the promo tedium faster (and cheaper considering you usually earn about $200/hr), welcome aboard!

P.S. Return in a couple of weeks. We might have a huge earning surprise here for all travel writers.
