UPDATE: As of 3pm today I've already gotten an EXCELLENT plethora of well-qualified Organic Girls! So all permanent/founding contributors have been chosen and will be announced next week. If you'd like to still write occasionally or be a guest contributor - please let me know! Thanks so much :D
Awhile ago I told you all about a new webventure I've started called "The Organic Girls." This site is devoted to helping sexy young (and young at heart) ladies, moms, teens, etc... go organic, green, environmentally friendly... all of the above. From seasoned veterans, to complete newbies, this site will be full of great advice, tips, tricks, and resources for anyone who's curious about making themselves, their families, and their lives, more eco-friendly and natural.
Well, I've gotten an overwhelming response from people who would like to contribute! I was looking for about 5 regular writers, and got requests from over 25! So apparently there's a definite interest in this area!
So I am officially in "recruiting" mode for new regular writers. This is for those who would like to be heavily involved in the site - the "founders" if you will. Later I will ask for extra, occasional contributors, but for now I'd like only those who are ready to really be official "Organic Girls." For those of you who are interested, here is what you'll get!
- You'll contribute an article to the site at least once per week.
- You'll be able to participate in discussions regarding the site's development and start-up.
- Your profile will be featured in our contributors area. (Photo required.)
- You will have a Custom Illustration/Stock Photo made to look like you too!
In the beginning we will discuss our ideas etc... for how we'd all like the site to be set up, what should be included, what angles (if any) we will each take, promo and giveaway ideas, and much more!
It's important to know that you DO NOT need to know anything about being green or going organic to be an official Organic Girl. Since this is such a new and exciting thing, even the most experienced editors will need to do their research. All you need is the desire!
So, if you'd like to be an editor, please click the "Contact" tab at the top and include:
- Why you'd like to be an editor.
- What you'd like to to write about.
- How often you are willing to contribute. (At least once per week.)
- What your availability is like.
- A little bit about yourself and your personal life.
- Anything else!
I'll choose about 5 people (probably the first five!) or close the "recruitment" on July 5th. Also, it would be REALLY awesome if you could do a little post about this! Even if you aren't interested, your readers might be!
Let's make the world, our families, and ourselves happier and healthier!
