Trisha Miller
Publisher & Managing Editor, TravelWritersExchange.com

Trisha joined the Travel Industry in 1996 with a background in telecommunications and helped to build (and later sell) one of the industry's top inbound call centers specializing in air travel.

Her entree into the world of travel writing found her writing destination-specific content for a corporate travel intranet, and continued as she contributed content to a large number of travel-related companies that were establishing an online presence throughout the late '90's and early '00's.

Currently she is a member of the International Food, Wine, and Travel Writers Association, still a frequent world traveler, an occasional guest-blogger on a number of other Travel Blogs, and writes about travel and technology, sometimes both at the same time.

Lately I’ve become intrigued by the idea of a creative writing retreat.
I’ve been feeling a bit fried creatively. Maybe it’s the mid-winter doldrums. Maybe it’s just having too many projects on my plate at one time.
