My Editor Responds; My Article is on the Web

Well, I received two e-mails from my editor at Gayot Publications this morning. The first was that she received my business article and would read it this weekend. The next e-mail was sent two hours later, saying it was terrific and exactly what she wanted. Her only comment was that since the publication has their own rating system, they do not include any awards a hotel has garnered. One of my reviews mentions that the Kempinksi Hotel received three international awards for business travelers, so she broke my 150 word running streak. If that is all she faulted, who am I to complain. The more exciting news is that my first article is now on the web at http://www.gayot.com/travel/citytrips/budapest/day1.html . After going through the 3 days, there are additional links to the rest of my writing at Budapest: Hotels, Restaurants, Attractions, Travel Guide Hungary, and Budapest Tourism Office. The photos of Fisherman's Bastion on page 1 and Castle Hill View on page 2 are my photos that they chose to us.

The Business Traveler

After writing the first article for Gayout Publications, I was hired to write a second article for the business traveler to Budapest. After the introductory information, the guidelines were to include five hotels, five restaurants, and five off the clock activities. Each review could not be more than 150 words. After writing up the first two hotels and restaurants, I realized I had hit 150 words exactly. Then it became a challenge to write all fifteen reviews with exactly 150 words. It may sound easy, but it was not. Challenging for sure, but I did it. My deadline for the article was April 14th, but I sent it in today. As pleased as I was with it, my only hope was that my editor would be equally as pleased. Fingers are crossed.
