Dear
It's not often that I feel the need to contact you a second time in a month, but when this opportunity landed on my desk five minutes ago I felt compelled to tell you about it.
Every year I get asked by my contacts at Culture Smart if I can help
them to find authors to write country-specific guides for their
thriving series. There is a one off fee payable and the books, of
about 30,000 words are written to a defined formula. This is a terrific
opportunity for anyone who wants to get published and has recently
lived in the country featured.
The Culture Smart guides are short books that aim to alert first-time
visitors to the values and attitudes of different countries. The series
has been well reviewed in The Observer, Sunday Telegraph and New York
Times. It has appeared on CNN's Travel website, and on BBC World's
weekly travel programme "Fast Track".
For more information, see www.culturesmart.co.uk.
The next books requiring authors are:
- Colombia
- Venezuela
- Bahrain
- Jordan
- Azerbaijan
- Mali
- Uganda
To receive my personal connection to the series editor, please send
me a brief email via
my website contact form with Culture Smart in the title and I will be happy to
do so.
Thanks
Jo
