Hi! We are hiring writers for the B&M Newsletter I am in charge of..

I need the following positions:

  • 1-2 Lesson Creator (1400+ ELO, @bestunknownplayer, -VACANCY-)
  • 1 Puzzle Maker (1100+ ELO, FILLED, @darkbrah7654)
  • 1 Spell Checker (FILLED, @WowThisIsWeird)
  • 1-3 Sponsor(s) for "Chess Game of the Week!"
  • 1-3 Sponsor(s) for "Tactic of the Week!"
  • Weekly Quotes (FILLED, @bestunknownplayer)
  • About our Members (FILLED?, @kingattacker3)

How will this work?

Lesson - I need you to create one lesson a week (I will help), that EITHER consists of one of these criteria: Openings, Middlegame, Endgame, Tactics, Strategies

Puzzle - Create at least 3 puzzles that is great for all levels! Very simple.

Sponsors?? - Sponsors, ah yes. These are "features" more than sponsors. These members will be featured in the newsletter explaining and annotating the game and tactic of the week! These may be random, but you will be selected by the Newsletter (if permission granted by yourself) . You will have the week to write a segment and message it back to my user @bestunknownplayer, then I will fit the segment in. Then a new random member will come along. How will you receive game in-puts? Put them in the "Game Showcase" and do #Newsletter so the "sponsor" can do their job!

Message me or ask questions here for details!

Thanks!

Its full time job technically. But we could use a part-time creator for the first week before anyone else wants to help!

People that weren't hired but I still want people to be apart of the newsletter and share thoughts.

Yes, I choose, but you can say yes or no to this option in the same newsletter.

i can do openings, i could do games but I wouldn't be very good at annotating master level games (which is what I expect you're thinking of)

I would love for you to do a thing or two on openings, and maybe tactics as well (such as pins and skewers). I wasn't focusing on annotating master games in terms of "Chess Game of the Week" I meant from our members, in game of the week.

If you would actually like to do this (for however long), message me and ill give you the details! This shouldn't take you more than 20 minutes per week!

I still don't understand what you mean by "you can say yes or no to this option in the same newsletter".

 

Anyways, I've signed up

Did you just put yourself as lesson creator with a rating requirement of 1400

I don't think there should be some specific people who write lessons weekly, anyone should be able to contribute. It's hard to write a lesson if you force yourself to do it, it's better if you do it whenever you feel like to

That’s why I included sponsors, they help around weekly, but don’t have to do it the next week if they don’t want to. And if they don’t want to another sponsor is chosen! grin.png sponsors are a week to week basis from B&M helping the newsletter
