Learn to write engaging blogs and articles about your Food and Travel experiences.
Food and travel writing has emerged as one of the most popular genres of writing across the Internet. Above all, they rank very high among the most read and shared blogs.
Before going on a weekend getaway or just an evening out with friends, we tend to check for reviews or articles about the place. Moreover, we sometimes even make plans after reading about something interesting.
Therefore, not only does food and travel writing have a definite market, but both genres are increasingly paying well to the freelance writer. So, if you are an explorer and want to earn whilst doing what you love, then this workshop is for you.
However, memorable reads on both food and travel need the writer to be a connoisseur as well as a researcher. Writing a lucid piece on your last vacation or your favorite cuisine/ restaurant, is both an art and craft.
Chutzpah is as important as craft. Particularly if you want your piece to be several notches above the competition.
Sounds tough?
Not to worry, senior journalist and author Kalyani Sardesai will be happy to take you through the nuts and bolts of both food and travel writing in the course of this two day workshop in Pune.
Bon Voyage and Bon Appétit will have a whole new meaning, once you discover the potential and promise of both these terms.
