Call for writers!

Atiari · 05-22-2008, 03:26 PM

Hello loyal Onrpg readers!

We are once again looking for more volunteer writers for Onrpg.com! The initial response was great, but way more than we needed. Times change though, and with an estimated 100 new games due out by the end of the year we need more people to write about them.

What we are looking for is a 1000-1500 word review of your favorite non-MMO game. It could be something old, new, console or even PC. It is not important as this is only going to be used to judge your writing skills.

This is a volunteer position so there is no pay involved unfortunately. What is being offered is a chance to get your name out in the video game industry, a great job to put on your resume, a professional reference, and best of all the opportunity to review pay to play MMOs without paying!

Please send the reviews to brian@onrpg.com and be patient for a response. As they come in I will read each one and reply to everyone who sends something in. Good luck and happy writing!

May I ask why it has to be a non-mmo?

Atiari · 05-22-2008, 04:07 PM

I'd prefer non-MMO because I do not want anyone saying we are stealing their work.

BUT, if you want to send in an MMO-related review to be judged you can knock yourself out.

currently working on my review but being limited to on-screen keyboard is rough.

Jrgsubzero · 05-22-2008, 06:16 PM

If my sample writing wasn't any good i'll write up a new one when I have more time if allowed.

On screen keyboard? wtf?

I'll start going over reviews later tonight. I've had 2 hours sleep in the last 48 hours and really, really need some rest.

WerewolfX · 05-22-2008, 06:31 PM

yeah my keyboard is currently out of commision and my friend got me one for my birthday, but has yet had the chance to deliver it.

but i sent my sample, please disregard missing letters, osk is funky.

LOL OSK is horrible

. I'm a horrible writer but if I do come up with something I'll send it in, even though you will probably just deny it haha

i typed 1014 words on it before the veins in my wrist collapsed.

Whats the deadline on this review?
I'm getting an online interview, but it can take some while for them to respond. Also this will be my first time, but I've gotten an interest for writing reviews since a week or so.
