Newspaper Jobs

Right, so. XD First of all, this is where you can apply for positions with the newspaper. Now, the list below is of all the positions, and whether or not they're open for people to apply yet still. You can post your desire for most positions here, but look closely to make sure that a PM isn't required instead. If you have any questions about the jobs, those should be posted here too.

NOTE: None of the positions are currently available. Right now I am not allowing further column ideas; co-leaders, if you're okay with more ideas, please let me know, and I'll update this. XD Another option would be to assist people in the columns that are already taken, but you'll have to PM them yourself if you'd like to do that. Sorry to everyone who didn't get a job!

Co-owners
(This position is not open.)
Jesus4Eternity, LuckyPenny666, Arianna, PugsRock

Layout Designer
(This position is not open, though it couldn't hurt to offer help if you'd like to . . . unless Ari doesn't want help. xD)
Arianna

Movie Review Article Writer
(This position is not available.)
This is pretty easy to explain, you just pick a movie you've seen lately, give it a rating, and say what you liked or didn't like about it and stuff.
Komoda

CD Review Article Writer
(That's CD as in musical, yes. This position is not available.)
See above, except with the album of your choice.
Blue Aqua Wind

Book Review Article Writer
(This position is not available.)
See above, except with the book of your choice.

Microfiction Series Writer
(This position is not available.)
All you'd have to do is write a short story, one hundred words or less, that would be continued each month. Until it ended at some point. XD
Littletoes101

Twig Trends Article Writer
(This position is not available.)
Here somebody would discuss some things that seem to be popular around the forums, like books people are reading, stuff like that.
LuckyPenny666

Debate Writers
(This position is not available.)
So, these two people would each post a pro or con list, as a casual debate over something. Like, Mac vs. PC. Maybe there could also be a poll for members to vote on it, too, and the results would be posted in the following newsletter along with a new debate? xD

FOREIGN?!

Ask [insertwritername]
(This position is not open.)
You've ever seen an Ask Amy or whoever column in the newspaper? XD Well, it's like that, except for writerly topics. People submit their questions to somebody, probably one of the co-owners, and then it gets sent to the secret person answering the questions . . . and then they send their answers back. So basically it's totally anonymous.

Joke Article Writer
(This position is not available.)
Just a few jokes and stuff, nothing too complicated. ^^
Mrs. Twarry Matsuda

RP Review Writer
(This position is not available.)
Somebody to look at some random roleplays and give their reviews about them . . . ? They'd need to be careful about not hurting peoples' feelings, though. XD Like, either give kind criticism, or just forego a RP they'd call 2 stars for one that's better.
Jinx

Poem Review Writer
(This position is not available.)
See above, but with poems.
Novastare

Story Review Writer
(This position is not available.)
See above, but with stories.
LuvPink

Comics
(This position is not available.)
Not sure what happens here yet, but I guess it doesn't matter since the person who does has the job. XD
Noah the Flood
Sharkbait

Author Quotes
(This position is not available.)
Here you would look for a quote by a favorite author, nothing fancy shmancy.

Well, haven't a few of us claimed co-owning it together or something? And you said since we could, do we automatically get it? 'Cuz I think I was one of them. (;

Yeah...I believe it was Amanda, Ari and me. If it's ok.

I'm working on updating still, but I think I have that as Amanda, Ari, Lucky, and Pugs. Since Pugs was the original owner, and expressed interest in still co-owning. ^^

EDIT: Updated. :3

Ohh, I'd like the CD Reviewer one. xD
It'd be cool, 'cause I lovee music. ^.^

Question though;; Do they have to be CD's that just like, came out? ;3

I'd like to do the Twig Trends and the book review (if I can decide on one to review). I can also do one side of the debate if you need someone, since I've had experience writing real editorial articles.

I could do the CD review or the book reviews. Or the debate one.

I'll Pm you an apps, but I'd like to apply for Poem Review Writer, Microfiction Series Writer, but really you can put me where you please or don't it's up to you.


I've decided, unless it's not open, I would love to do the poem reviews.

Updated! ^^ We now have an ask [person], too, the name of which really should be decided soon. XD

Aly, the position is yours! ^^

Sure, Lucky! ^^ I've got you under those positions (except debates, since I think we can wait a while and see on that one), but would you be willing to give one of them up if other people would like to do something but everything is taken, so that more people can have a chance to participate?

I'm putting you under debates, Ratty, if that's okay. ^^

All right, Cyn! :3

Nova, neither of those are taken yet, so is there one you'd prefer or would you like both, if possible? ^^
EDIT: Nevermind, I'll just add you as the poem person. :3

Yay! Aha, thank you(:

Oh my gosh!! I would be in love if I could do both!!!

I'd like to apply for being the Movie Review Article Writer.

Hmm...
I'd say Jokes...
But instead of Jokes, could I do, I dunno, comics? ^^

Can I please be the Movie Article Review Writer? (:

Sure, Lucky! ^^ I've got you under those positions (except debates, since I think we can wait a while and see on that one), but would you be willing to give one of them up if other people would like to do something but everything is taken, so that more people can have a chance to participate?

Of course.

Very good ideas Cyn! So like interview the writer of the poem and each column, we have two poems? So, maybe I could also write what theme most of the poems have been about that day or week or whatever.

Could I be microfiction series writer?

Oh cool, I can't wait. So, how do we choose? Like can it be random, or should we have a system?

I be happy with my two positions. :3

But I hope everyone can find the right position for themselves.

I like all your ideas about the Featured articles, Cyn! ^^

Oooh, yeah, there was a suggestion for comics, wasn't there? XD I think I left it out for whatever reason because I didn't understand it, though. So, well, you can have that then! But what exactly would you be putting in your article? Actual comics, or like, reviews of them or something?

Thanks for offering, but I'm afraid the position has been taken now.

I think it'd be okay to choose however you want, but you'll probably need to run the article past the co-owners to make sure they're okay with it. ^^

And. XD So. I feel too ownery right now, so if one of the co-owners would like to yell at me to get out of the way and just let them handle everything but the editing, I'm fine with that.

Psh, owners, J/k! Okay, great, yeah thats what I was thinking I'd have to do. Thats perfectly fine with me.

Featured story/RP/Poem/Member

I guess I can do that. XP

I wanted to do comics, though. DX [Of course, I wanted to add my random stickmen in there. XD

Shad - I would be putting like, actual comics.
