Help an angel out will ya?

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Awhile ago, Blair proposed a City magazine, The Citizen. Then Blair left, Blair came back and Anna's been overseeing it for the most part.

I would like to move towards getting it published/on sale/in circulation, but I need your help. I have a list of people who said they were interested in writing back from the original post and I need to know:

• Are you still interested in being a part of it?
• How do you want your character credited?
• What's the name of your article?
• What is it about?

Additionally, if there was anyone who missed the original post, but wants to handwave recruitment to the magazine, please comment here with the above info.

So far I have:

• Huey child_radical  - politics
• Angela thenormalsquint  - art
• Claire adamantined  - cooking/recipies
• Road dreamsofnoah  - ads/articles for the Circus

I'd love to have people who write a tips and tricks for surviving the curses articles, a food/club/event reviewer or two, and/or more ads! Perhaps a person who does interviews with City residents.

Thank you, Poly, for enabling my organizing tendencies. That is all.

ETA: I should probably note that if you're contributing (or want to) you don't actually have to write said article. I'm planning of mocking up a cover, table of contents, and... that's about it. Unless you really do want to write said column, then we can make a few internal pages as well.

Probably should have added that sooner. My bad!

I'd like Castle to help out for obvious reasons. Maybe interviews?

How often would the magazine come out?

Also you might talk to Karen mun (has_espn I think). I know she wanted to do an advice column but I don't know if she'd want to affiliate it with the magazine or not.

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Sure, or if he were interested in writing little serialized mysteries al la Dickens that could be fun. Just let me know what strikes your fancy.

Probably monthly once it's off the ground.

Ahhh - see I knew I'd end up missing people.

[cuffmeonce.livejournal.com]

That would fantastic but that will depend heavily on my time as I'll have to write the mysteries (and I'm such rubbish at it). Maybe interviews and the promise/hope of some serialized mystery?

I don't think she was ever on the magazine staff so to speak. I just remember a post from her about starting one.

Well, we're not going to actually be writing the thing, I'll probably be making covers, maybe some splash pages or something although if you actually want to write it that's cool, too.

I just want to make sure that I'm not leaving people out, giving everyone a chance to participate.

[wishsrequiem.livejournal.com]

Sounds like something I'd be interested in. Possibly Lelouch too.

The only difference is that I actually work at a newspaper, hence the interest. >w>

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Anything specific you had in mind?

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

same person, different Lulu account. orz.

my only experience is with circulation. but I expect that he's be good at that job or something dealing with finances.

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Ohhhh, we could use a circulation manager. I know we don't have one so I think that might work?

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

That's totally fine by me. :)

PRIESTLY WOULD LIKE TO WRITE ABOUT POLITICS

AND ALIEN ABDUCTION

AND HOW HE'S PRETTY SURE HE'S GOT CLONES

:>

*debates putting this in the fiction section*
*nahhhh*
*humor section?*

It's a possibility. You know, for the back pages, near the ads...

*winks*

It's supposed to be fairly high-brow, but we could probably work something out.

[adamantined]

HELLO. I am still up for Claire contributing. I sort of just dropped the ball. Sorry about that!

/begins looking up recipies

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

You probably don't actually have to write up an article - I was just going to dummy up some covers and the like.

Unless you want to in which case I can do some internal pagers, too.

[dreamsofnoah]

Road would still be up for that! Mostly ads/pictures of the show/maybe a small article was what she had in mind.

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Wonderful - how would Road like to be credited, and do you have any images you'd like me to use?

[freckleddoll]

There's the images on this page maybe? Or I can mock up some kind of poster if that would work better. As for credit, maybe the mention that she owns it?

[tenthsickday.livejournal.com]

I'M LATE BUT

Ferris would totally write something. Perhaps reviews or interviews?

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Fabulous - your choice and we can handwave signing you up.

[mumbled_truth]

Different journal and lateness (again) but~

He can do reviews of restaurants/clubs?

This one's a poet but he's too shy to submit work.

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Sure!

[thenormalsquint]

Still interested! /googles for art

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Sweet

[gforgreat.livejournal.com]

Do you have a money/business article yet?

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

No I do not, want it?

[gforgreat.livejournal.com]

Yup! For <--- this guy right here~ Timothy Hearst.

[backseatangel.livejournal.com]

Done!
