People often think that all writers are introverted book nerds; that is not always the case. In fact, some famous award-winning writers like Ben Groundwater and Catherine Marshall have each traveled to over 80 countries in their lives. They are extroverted and love writing, so they combined these two characteristics to excel in outdoor writing. Also, Lowcountry womens fiction author earn good money by writing about its living experiences observing the world.

It is fun being an outdoor writer, they go to trips regularly, make notes about the food and activities (kayaking, camping, fishing, and etc.) there and finally write articles or books and sell them. Jonathan White, a well know writer wrote a book about the experience he got when he visited the ocean, his book title is The Science and Spirit of the Ocean.

Some when they are at these holiday destinations focus on finding the things that are unique and fun to do at a particular holiday area. Some focus on the cost of the overall trip while some focus on how easy or difficult it is to tour in these areas. They then write reviews on the holiday websites, or advertise them in tourism magazines for a fee or write articles for their blogs.

With one trip, a writer can sell the same experience to several markets. All they have to do is to rewrite and reshape the article with different pictures to avoid plagiarism and to make each article unique and authentic. Each article will differ depending on what the buyers need and its purpose, but only one trip will have been made. Selling one thing to different people in different ways will maximize the profits.

A freelance writer sitting at home and writing research articles rarely makes financial losses in this career because they don t spend that much money to write the articles. So if no one buys the articles, they will have only lost the time they took to write them. On the other hand, travel writers spend a vast amount of money to travel to holiday destinations and when they get there they want to have a full experience of the area, so they pay for all activities, fine dining and wining. If no one buys their articles, the money they spent there won t be recovered.

Although some travel writers say they have time to have fun during their visits, a majority say they are at work most of the time and don t find the trips as fun as a casual visitor finds them. They always have to be on the lookout for extraordinary things or some things they find can make their articles and books interesting. They take pictures of the area and write notes almost all the time they are there.

Not all outdoor writers love traveling or are adventurous, some like staying at home while others have never gotten out of their countries. They don t write about holiday destinations, they write about simple things like gardening, farming, geology and anything concerning the outside world.

One way of having fun while making money is to be a travel writer. You simply go out and see the world, tell people things you saw and get paid for it.
