Contributor's Guidelines:
Want to become a contributor? Our mission is to recruit the top freelance travel writers in the world to become contributors for Famtripper.com. If you are a professional travel writer we'd like you to join our team, go on our site and read a few of our current stories. We like our stories to be approximately 1,000 words, entertaining, concise, and accurate.
Your story must be accompanied by photography complete with detailed captions, fact-checking materials, sources, and contacts, as well as a short biography. (Note: though not necessary, we also accept well-edited “youtube.com” videos of no more than 2 minutes apiece.) If accepted, you will be sent an email inviting you to join our team.
We recommend you subscribe to Famtripper.com’s monthly newsletter for a listing of currently published stories to familiarize yourself with our style. If after reviewing our website and reading our Contributor’s Guidelines, you still have questions, please e-mail the editor who will respond to you within 24 hours.
1. Original stories only
2. Write in the first person, i.e. "I." (We want to travel vicariously through you.)
3. Submit about 1,000 words, give or take 200 but no more
