Keep track of your Family Travels and Adventures

GoneGoing is an evolution of the travel blog. It is named after those who have Gone somewhere and want to write about it, and those who are Going somewhere and want to read about it.

Have you ever looked at a travel blog website and thought "there's a wealth of information in there, but no easy way to find what I'm interested in?" GoneGoing was created to solve that problem.

Imagine you're going on holiday. Maybe you don't know where you want to go, but you want somewhere with extreme sports activities, and also some culture. You want somewhere that people aged 25-30 would recommend, and you're going in November.

With GoneGoing you can quickly specify all this and more, and matching travel blog articles are dynamically updated on a map to show only what you're interested in.

Once you've found an area of the world that interests you, zoom in to further filter the results. Finally, click on individual articles to read about the authors' experiences and use their combined wisdom to plan your perfect trip.

The exploring interface is the main feature of our site; however the best interface in the world is still worthless without content. Therefore we need travel-wise (or not so wise) people to help contribute to our site so we can grow into an exciting new community.

Your travel blog can contain stories, photos and videos, and you will be able to receive feedback and questions through the discussion boards automatically attached to your articles. Integrated RSS feeds even allow your friends and family to keep track of your adventures. And best of all, it's completely free. Visit GoneGoing

Writers - Connect with Publishers

Someone you know has written a book—maybe you have yourself. You think the hard work's behind you; the unfortunate truth is that the hard work has just begun! Now you need to find an editor who's interested in the kind of book you've written, get his attention, make the connection that will let him see your work.

The traditional model involves researching interested editors, searching books that were published a year ago or websites that might never have been updated. When you find an editor you think might be interested, you package up your manuscript and put it in the mail. Then you wait. And you wait. It could be months before you hear a thing.

And what you hear after those months often begins with "Sorry."

Helpful coaching from first readers

Creative Byline employs first readers, who have expertise in writing and publishing. They'll read your children's picture book or a synopsis, outline, and first three chapters of a longer work. And they'll give you (or your writing friend!) useful feedback that you can use to polish your work so you know that it's ready to be reviewed by an editor, who's a professional critic!

Target the editors you want

Editors from participating publishers (Dutton Children's Books, St. Martin's Press, Tor Forge, and more to come) tell Creative Byline—and participating writers—what they're looking for right now. Writers don't have to rely on outdated information. They don't have to take a shot in the dark and wait months to see if they've hit anything. Writers can search the Creative Byline editors to see who's interested in exactly what they've got.

Guaranteed connection to the editor you choose

When your project is ready, you can submit it to the editor you've chosen. Creative Byline guarantees that the project hasn't been reviewed within three weeks, you can choose another editor.
