Fiction writers are known for their descriptions of characters, but so many writers skip these details in their travel pieces—to their detriment.
Characters are one of the main things editors regularly lament that writers don’t include in their pitches or final pieces. In this webinar, we explore how to get the details you need on the ground as well as how to incorporate them into your pieces.
