Travel Blogging vs Travel Writing
Gary Arndt, a well known travel blogger and prolific traveller muses about what he would pick if it ever comes to choosing between writing for NY Times of writing for his blog. He makes a very convincing argument about titlting towards his blog, and while he is at it, shares his thoughts about travel writing in print media and its future.
A writer will probably have a much larger audience for their work than a blogger, but that is due to the circulation of the magazine/newspaper not because of anything to do with the writer. If a writer is fired from a publication, their audience will probably not follow them somewhere else because they were never following them in the first place…and probably will have no idea they were even fired.
