Lee Foster is an excellent photographer and prolific travel writer. He posts his writing at his website, has a bazillion stock photos from everywhere on the planet, and even now has iPhone apps for travel photography. Wow, he’s on top of things.
But the content I’m most interested in reading is how (and what) he’s doing in our social media world. I can see that he’s doing it, but I’m curious about how he’s doing it, how it’s working for him, what’s working, what’s not, and how we can learn from it.
Laurie King over at Travel Writers News is also interested as she mentions Lee’s article in her own commentary on apps and the future of journalism. She’s also interested, for her travel writing readers, about how a pro in the industry is doing things. What’s especially interesting about Lee’s write up is that he gives real numbers, real percentages of commissions so we can see first hand what’s going on behind the scenes.
I’ll be curious to see if these posts by both Laurie and Lee get more traffic than a post about, well, travel itself. Stay tuned.
