12th Man Rising Is Looking For Staff Writers
By Keith Myers
As the Seahawks gear up for a new season, so shall we at 12th Man Rising. To do that, we’re hoping to add a couple new voices to the site.
12th Man Rising is dedicated to bringing to the best Seahawks coverage on the web. In order to step up our game, we are expanding our staff here at 12th Man Rising to give you more content and a broader perspective, and thus are accepting applications for contributing writers.
Part of the mission of the FanSided Network is to encourage the sharing of opinions and thoughts by fans about their favorite teams. We want to give you the best coverage and opinions on your favorite team from the fan perspective that is so often missing from traditional sports media. We believe sports coverage doesn’t have to be dry, boring and without opinion.
Contributing writers are expected to submit at least one article per week. These positions are not paid, although many of our contributing writers move into paid staff positions as vacancies and opportunities arise. Being a contributing writer for a FanSided blog also offers excellent exposure and a chance to sharpen not only your writing skills but your view of your favorite team. There is tremendous opportunity for growth within FanSided to those who seek it.
If you are interested in becoming a contributer for 12th Man Rising, please submit a writing sample about anything concerning the Seahawks that is at least 350 words.
Please send all submissions to: marinermyers@live.com
You will be contacted shortly if we are interested. Thanks in advance for applying and for sharing your work.
Thanks and Go Seahawks!
