Call for Submissions for Family Travel Website:

I am looking for freelance writers to contribute articles for a family travel website I am publishing. The site is not online yet, as I would like to get more articles and have good content from the beginning. I’m looking for articles 500 to 2000 words on traveling with babies and toddlers, including advice pieces and destination guides. Unfortunately, I can only pay $15 per article at this time since we’re just starting out. I’m a freelance writer myself, so I know this isn’t much, and I plan to increase the pay as soon as possible. I will accept reprints. All writers will receive a byline as well. Please email me at kyla_writer@yahoo.com (that’s kyla UNDERSCORE writer). Please either query or paste the completed article in the body of the email. No attachments unless requested. Thank you.
