My magazine is looking for a new science fiction columnist. We're a monthly publication for a general, nationwide audience, and the column would recommend three books a month, roughly 200 words per book. Here is the most recent column.
We don't pay a lot, but it's a steady gig, plus free books! If anyone is interested, please email me at my profile address, and include writing samples if you've got 'em. We would start you off with a trial review of one book, and go from there.
Looking for L.A.-area teachers. Of course, the awesome Kat and Kristin, but also anyone any Buffistas know in the area who you might like to send this on to. My company is doing a focus-group with educators to find out how our captioned material might be useful in a classroom. It's about an hour long, we provide snacks and the participants get a $30.00 Amazon giftcard. We will hold this at our office in Burbank, so people can see how TV shows are captioned and cool stuff like that. Please contact me or send anyone you know who might be interested my way at robin@captionmax.com
