ItL Looking for News Writer(s)!

[Maxine MagicFox]

Hey guys! So, Sirth has not really been posting - which is fine. It was pretty much a temp thing anyways with him. I dunno if he's still interested, so he can speak up if he wants, but otherwise...

I really do want another good news writer for the site. You do not need to know HTML. They News system is fairly easy to operate, and when I'm done creating my own - it's going to be even easier.

I would just like to have another writer on board for weeks like this week when news of a spin off is released and I just can't post because my god I was tired and didn't feel like even getting on my computer, much less type out a news entry.

Ask any questions and I'll do what I can to answer them. If you would like a screen capture of the news system so you can see what it looks like before hand, don't be afraid to ask. Again, though, it is changing... if I ever get it completed -_-;

I want someone that can sound professional but fun and has good grammar and spelling skills!

Hello,

While I'm new to these forums, I've spent my time with writing news and reviews. I'm glad to help if you would have me. The link below is where I did videogame reviews for a time, mainly to learn to use After Effects.

I try and keep track of gaming news in the first place, so I'll end up looking at the piles of news about the Etrian Odyssey 1 spin off regardless.

Hi Ex. The youtube video you listed is interesting, but I'm more interested in your writing abilities. Are there any articles or reviews that you've written that you could link to?

[Ex-Lurker]

Hmm... These are several years old, but I used to do collumns and reviews for MMOsite...

By now I've changed a little bit... More double checking, more to the point... These days I keep my writing sharp with short stories and rants that I never share with people.

You have more experience than most of the people that I was hoping to respond to this post - which is a great thing!

Let me see what you can do now. Would you mind writing up the missing EO1 Spinoff article I haven't gotten to yet? If it's good I'll hire you and show you how to post it up on the website.

[Ex-Lurker]

Surely, expect it before the end of the day. I'll PM it to you.

I'll volunteer as editor!

[Wave-tan]

Tempting, and I have experience both as a review writer and as an editor, but...I suspect I'd be biting off more than I can chew with my current responsibilities. (^_^;)

[Maxine MagicFox]

No thanks, Trif. I'm the editor. ^_^; I need the stories written, not edited.

I was hoping for one more person to volunteer, but after seeing Ex's beautiful job (my GOD he's doing a great job) maybe I won't need it. So, for now, I'm going to suspend the hunt for another writer.

... T-T I think Ex is doing a better job than I do when I post news stories.....
