Wanted: Progressive Posters

Well, on to Plan B.  Please bear with us while we make the transition to Team Blog for Iowa.

During the next couple of weeks, Blog for Iowa will be forming a team of "trusted posters."  Each poster will cover one or more designated topics, and will post on a set schedule.  We hope to maintain the 21-posts-per-week schedule that Blog for Iowa readers are accustomed to.

I have already invited some folks to participate and will be training participants personally over the phone.

If you are an Iowa progressive, like to keep up with the alternative news (I'll help with sources, of course), and have some computer skills (a knowledge of how to use Word would be helpful), please send your application to Linda at blog@democracyforiowa.com.

Check out the Writers' Guidelines on the right sidebar of Blog for Iowa for some indication of what to expect.

Please include a couple of paragraphs about your participation in the progressive community (this is a writing/editing test) and a brief resume.  You need not have any professional writing experience, but it would be helpful.  An inclination towards attention to detail is a must.  This is a volunteer position.

Thank you!
