In our How Travel Writers Self-Publish podcast we cover how to research and get inspired to become a local travel guide author.

There’s a whole slew of collaborative local travel guide sites positioned to share tips from locals. You can use these sites to get inspired about the topics and content niches you can recreate for your own local neighbourhood.

You don’t have to venture very far from your front door to discover a location that is ideal fodder for a local travel guide, and an inspiration for a tourist visiting your neighbourhood.
