Since I'm getting some interested parties in joining the FTM Pride Author Team who have had some questions about what it'd entail I figured I'd post some of that stuff here incase others are curious.
1. Will there be prompts do I have to write on a specific subject?
No I will not make participants write on assignment. I may come up with prompts if I think of something that would be neat to get different perspectives on, but whether or not you participate in those is completely up to you. If you want to write about something else that pertains to the subject of the blog (FTMs), then go for it!
2. Is there a posting schedule?
No, not at this point. There is a small group of writers and readers right now and we're gonna have time to sort of get our sea legs. I want to get several perspectives and stories so if you need to work longer on your posts, or post irregularly then that's fine with me. If we get alot of authors I may introduce a schedule just to keep from people tripping over each other while posting, but that's probably quite a ways down the road if it comes to that.
4. How do I participate?
You will need to make (if you do not already have) a blogger account. I will need you to send me your email address so that I can invite you to join as an author. Once you accept the invitation you will be ready to start blogging.
5. Do I have to be a literary genius to participate?
No, you don't need to be a college graduate in writing and English. But I do have certain standards. At the very least run your blog through spell check to take care of typos. For the love of God don't type in n3t speek 0r l33t speek. It is annoying and hard to read.
6. I have more questions!
Then let me know. You can PM me or hit me up in chat.
