Very informative and clear spoken. Rosie Bell really knows her information and has done a great job presenting it. She's very realistic about the perks and perils of the job. No sugar-coating the facts of travel writing. I like that most.

Rosie Thank you so much for this informative session, this is for sure travel writing 101 with the excel sheet it much more helpful than i thought it would be. Special mention about the example of pitch or dek or even for the bio page. Quick suggestion to take this to the next level is making it bit more easy for people like me to add those reference pointer along with the excel sheet
