AUTHORS AND PUBLISHERS
If you have a book to promote or would like to set up an interview with a literary personality, please
contact the editors via e-mail: hipsterbookclub@gmail.com


WRITERS

We're always looking for new writers to join the staff. If you're interested in being a part of the HBC website, please send us the following:

  • A brief summary of your writing background. No experience is necessary, but we'd like to know if you have any.
  • Your screen name on LiveJournal. If you're not a part of the HBC LiveJournal community, you obviously don't have to provide this.
  • A 500-800 word book review. You may choose any book you'd like, though we'd prefer to see reviews of books we haven't already reviewed ourselves.
  • Anything else you think we need to know about you. This may include your literary interests (e.g. your affinity for experimental fiction, memoirs, or graphic novels), ideas for an article, or offers to give Kyle a backrub.

Send this material to hipsterbookclub@gmail.com


COPY EDITORS
The HBC is looking for one or more additional copy editors to help proofread articles each month. Copy editors will work under the current editors, proofreading anywhere from 10 to 15 articles per month, not including rewrites. Proofreading experience is preferred, though a journalism background is not required. To apply, please send us the material listed above, but please note the following changes and additions:

  • Please provide a brief summary of your copy editing experience and abilities, as well as your availability.
  • If you do not want to write, you do not have to provide a writing sample. However, a writing sample could help us determine how well you can copy edit yourself.
  • We may give you a copy editing test.

Please note that copy editing and writing positions are on a volunteer basis only. Nobody at the HBC gets paid...unless you consider free books to be payment.
