2007 Query Challege Success Story #20 (from Kara Williams)

www.inkthinkerblog.com — Received March 31, 2007

Another success story!

I sold a short travel article to the Dallas Morning News! It couldn’t have been a more pleasant process — from initial pitch to publication it was only 3 weeks. I’m thrilled to have landed a travel story (my dream niche) in a prominent Sunday travel newspaper section. Yay!

Here’s the link:

    Just wanted to tell Kara congrats and a question. Kara, did you send the full manuscript to the travel ed. or query first? I’m thinking about approaching newspapers, and I know they’re probably all different, but I wondered what worked for you. Thanks! And very good article, by the way!
