Over the last two months since the book was first released in print and our special digital package, the guide has been slowly released for the numerous popular reader devices that are currently available including Kindle, NOOK, and Apple's iPad (finally released in late April 2012). Now that the guide is available in all mediums, we need your help! We are currently seeking a publisher for this great resource and need everyone's help getting the publishing world's attention to our little corner of the travel universe.

What's Next?
Our media campaign is going to take us on a few interesting paths over the next few weeks. As the details get finalized we'll post more information about our advertising campaign in Part 10 of the Writing a Travel Book series when it goes live in a few weeks. For now, here are a couple upcoming promotions we are putting together:
- A new contest to coincide with a review from a major travel company
- Local book signings and Q&A sessions in Dayton, Ohio and Pittsburgh, PA regions (starting local then expanding out)
- A new Webinar series with Art of Travel Blogging on writing and self-publishing
- ...and more!
