Description
You've been to amazing places. Now learn to put them into words.
Great travel writing isn't a diary entry or a list of things you did on vacation. It's a craft - one that combines vivid description, compelling narrative, and practical information to take readers somewhere they've never been and make them feel every step of the journey.
In this course, USA Today bestselling author and educator Steve Alcorn guides you through every aspect of travel writing. With more than 25 years of teaching experience and over 100,000 students, Steve brings the same clear, practical approach that has made his courses consistently top-rated on Udemy. He's written travel content himself and knows what it takes to get published in a competitive market.
You'll start with the fundamentals: what travel writing actually is, how it differs from other forms, and how to find your unique angle. From there you'll build the core skills - crafting narratives with real story structure, writing descriptions that use all five senses, and adapting your voice for different audiences and mediums.
The course then moves into the full landscape of travel writing markets: niche specialties, guidebooks, journalism, and corporate travel writing for tourism boards and travel brands. You'll learn to work with data, fact-check your work, collaborate with editors, and revise like a professional.
The final lessons cover the business of travel writing: pitching and selling short pieces, navigating print publishing, writing full travel books, and self-publishing to build your own readership and revenue.
17 focused lessons taking you from your first travel essay to a published, working writer. Whether you dream of bylines in major magazines or publishing your own travel memoir, this course gives you the skills and strategy to make it happen.
