If you surf the Internet long enough looking for publishing news, you see way too many sites looking for writers or bloggers or unpaid help. Sometimes however, I run across a job posting that I admire.
I wholeheartedly endorse this job posting over at the webcomics blog Fleen--it's a great job with a great reading community, and they cast the net wide enough to catch some good writers...
Check it out...
"If you’re interested in being a contributor, send us at least two webcomics-related sample posts and me and the writers will try and pick a couple of candidates from amongst the interested parties. The compensation is so small that you may not even notice it is there, but I promise you it will be a fun gig.."
They are looking for:
"1. a post a day, barring major circumstances
2. has to be about webcomics (although perhaps tangentially so)
3. you have to be able to write in a clear and cogent manner (disciples of Strunk & White, Eats, Shoots & Leaves, and This American Life always appreciated
4. you can’t be a webcomics creator; we’re looking for audience perspectives here."
Jason, I was interested in their statement "me and the writers will..." They might lose a few on that one.
Think it was added on purpose?
