Help Wanted: Blog Editor

We want to expand Literary Mama’s presence in cyberspace by adding another blog editor to our staff.

The Literary Mama blog publishes mama-centric news our readers can use — including information about publishing opportunities and literacy efforts; essays and writing prompts that motivate and inspire; announcements about events, classes, and workshops; and book giveaways and blog tours that feature mother-writers.

The ideal candidate pays attention to detail, thinks like a marketer (i.e. understands how a blog can be used to promote a product), and is comfortable searching the Internet and working with (or willing to learn) computer applications including WordPress and Google Calendar. She will join our current blog editor to fulfill our goal of three posts per week and should be comfortable working independently, yet able to communicate with a wide variety of other writers, including LM editors and the public.

Literary Mama cannot  offer compensation at this time — we are an all-volunteer organization — but we do offer the benefits of working with a talented group of writers and editors to produce one of Writer’s Digest’s picks for the “101 Best Web Sites for Writers.”

Applicants should email a letter and resume to Caroline Grant, Editor-in-Chief: carolinemgrant (at) gmail (dot) com
