Hey guys and girls,
I chose this as the first place to introduce our new site and as the first place to look for journalists.
As a frequenter of this site and especially this section of the forum I have become quite familiar with a lot of the users and have gotten to know quite a few of you personally. So, naturally, because this is a site based on people's nightlives I figured who better to ask first then those people who I've gotten to know through and around Vancouver's nightlife.
So here it is... www.edrink.net
Doesn't look like much for NOW but we have big plans in the works! :)
What we are looking for is people (girls or guys) from Vancouver or anywhere else that have excellent writing skills and something to write about with relevance to our site.
We don't want articles that ramble on about how "this bar sucks...this bar is good...this bar is good". Opinionated writing is great but there has to be some style to it. Some wit that either makes the reader laugh (in a classy way) or think about something they have never thought before.
We are looking for people that will write on all sorts of different topics. Music, bars, clubs, clothes, fashion and other types of cool new gear, drinks, sex, celebrities, rants (as long as they are related to the site) etc. Want to do a column on music great. Bars? Great! Sex? Great! Something that's on your mind (besides sex :p) that you want to share with/show the world. Awesome. Just make it witty and mature or informative. Your style and character should shine through the writing!
Requirements, more about the site and other things such as benefits for writers can be found on the site.
For more information please visit www.edrink.net and read the application info at www.edrink.net/journalistapplication.pdf
So in short, what you have to do is simply think of something to write about (something witty, funny, on your mind keeping in mind that there should be some relevance to the site), write it and email it to [email protected][/email] ASAP.
We are looking to have all journalist application positions filled by June 1st!!! Please send me an example of your writing by then because the site is then ready for launch!
For any questions or inquiries feel free to contact me @ [email][email protected]
I hope to hear from you and read your articles soon!
Thanks for your time guys!
June 1st!
~Sean G and Greg H

First off...
I am not trying to be cool. Would you rather have me save this pic and get my budy to host it instead? I really don't see the point. A lot of effort for the same result. I'm just spreading good vibes man. I love sander and i love the music...
You got a problem with something i do PM me...don't fill these forms with your bitter posts!
hahaha I am not trying to whore off my site. :p
This isn't a "COME VISIT MY SITE CAUSE I WANT HITS AND HITS = MONEY" thread.
I was making an offer for those who might be interested in doing some writing.
People seem to be excited. I have gotten a bunch of replies so far because for some people this is what they like doing and some even see it as an oppertunity.
Please guys, I'm looking to see what people think of this idea and the site!
If anyone is interested feel free to contact me!

I've been accused of doing it since I joined this site in April 2001 :stongue:
Seriously, post it in the western forum, you will get a better response because most of us are not from ol BC. Nice to see other sites with other ideas, most sites (cept ivibes.nu that I write for..THAT'S SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION....!) are status quo boring sites... |
