Wander Tales are inspirational, humorous, entertaining, educational and adventurous travel stories as told by women. We have a unique perspective on the world and this area is the place to laugh, ponder, share and learn.

If you are interested in writing for Wanderlust and Lipstick’s WanderTales, keep these guidelines in mind.

Who
1) Written by (but not necessarily for) women.
2) Previously published authors are given priority consideration.

What
1) Approximately 900-2,500 words in length
2) Submitted in word doc format with little to no editing required (send to: wanderlustandlipstick (at) gmail (dot) com)
4) All rights held by the submitting author/photographer.

Wanderlust and Lipstick is a new (but growing) website where we can come together, encourage each other to take more adventurous leaps in the world of travel, laugh at other’s bumbling travel mistakes and learn about other parts of the world and how we relate to it.

At this time, there is no pay for articles submitted to the WanderTales section of the website. HOWEVER, all articles will be considered for an anthology of women’s travel stories to be published in 2010. There will be a modest payment for any stories published in this book format.

We believe in encouraging and fostering the success of women in the travel industry, including writers, and want to not only provide an outlet for women travel writers and photographers but to also help support their passions.

If you have a published book in print, a link to that book will be included in your bio. If you’ve got your own website, a link to that will be included as well. These will help drive sales and traffic to you!

Send me a query or send your fully written story (minus the photos until story is accepted): wanderlustandlipstick (at) gmail (dot) com

Looking forward to hearing your Tales of Wander!
