Upstart Internet/publishing Company with major backing but minor bucks is looking for one very special person for one very interesting gig. This will be a weekly sex column, written first-person, from first hand experiences that, well, we’ll make you experience. What does that mean? It means the column’s not Q&A and we’re not looking for a Casanova. Instead, we want Jo Average who we can send out each week on a different sexual mission of sorts. You will come back and report earnestly and honestly. Was it scary to go to a dominatrix? Did you not have the balls to get waxed? Perhaps anticipating the threesome was more exciting than the actual affair. No stone will be left unturned…
Writing experience is not mandatory, but the ideal candidate will:
—Be the type who likes attention (this is, after all, the kind of job that if done right, leads to book deals and beyond).
—Be ready, willing, and able to throw themselves into whatever mischievous mayhem our editors dream up.
—Have a charming, self-deprecating way about them.
—Know what words like self-deprecating mean.
—And not have a problem with their picture appearing alongside stories of this nature.
NOTE: THIS IS NOT A FULL TIME JOB — more like a contract contributor — though it could potentially lead to more.
Resumes are not important, and compensation will be negotiated based on skill level (have you written for national newsstand print? We could probably up the word rate)… Instead, drop us line detailing why you’re the man for the job. Clips are always good if you’ve got them. Double bonus if they show off a not-so-formal style of writing some thing first person. Good luck and good day.
Remember when this blog used to have good writing and less clutter? I do.
