Calling all bloggers: we want YOU (update 1)

Posted Dec 18th 2006 10:15AM by David Hinkle

Do you enjoy writing about video games? Do you enjoy getting paid real monies? Well, then you might be just the person we're looking for! DS Fanboy and Wii Fanboy are both looking to expand their staff and are holding open submissions for bloggers. Applying is a piece of cake, asking only that you:

Write up 3 mock posts in the current format that is on DS and Wii Fanboy, including original source links for the story
Compose a short bio praising yourself and your insane writing skillz
Include links to all published material you have written in the past

And that should about do it. Simple enough, right? As always, failure to follow these rules will exclude you from the festivities. So get cracking and send your submissions to nintendobloggerjob [at] gmail [dot] com.

[Update: New email addy to send in submissions, other way around would've caused us headaches in the backend.]

1. Is there a deadline for submissions?

Thanks.

2. What kind of time do you expect us to be putting in? Do you think this job is possible if you have a regular 9-5 job?

3. In addition to the other comments, what kind of requirements are we talking about in terms of words, articles per week, etc? You can count on a submission by me, and I would love to get an email with some more information.

4. Would I be disqualified if I have no prior published works?

5. Ahhhh, wouldn't it be nice to finally get paid for the job I've been doing the past few years?

But somehow I doubt the job pay is nice enough with a flexible enough schedule that I could quit my dayjob...and I don't think I want to give up my Wii Editor position over at TheGameFeed...

6. It's eighteen and up only isn't it?
I almost guarentee you that the position is to the exclusion of anyone under eighteen, even if they do have writing skillz.

If the position is avalible to seventeeners with past game writing experience, you will have just made my day.
