New Words - writer callout

Submitted by Madeline on Tue, 05/12/2015 - 12:46

Hey Guys!

So, I've wanted to create an online publication forever, and now seems as good a time as ever to do it. I've come up with the concept of 'New Words' which I'd ideally like to focus on diverse/varying viewpoints on all different topics. I'd like to keep the writers all young, so that the next generation can share their vibrant viewpoints/opinions on different topics. This is non-discriminatory, so all subjects (well...within reason, unless you're writing about something TOTALLY insane, as in, mental-institution insane) are welcomed.

Please check it out at: www.mynewwords.weebly.com. I've always wanted to build an online publication and I really hope I can get some great writers involved, of which you all are. If you're interested, please fill out the contact form on the site. It goes right to me, and I'll respond to your email and we can get conversing about this! It's all still in the VERY early stages, so I'm looking for people to really help develop/flesh-out this idea.

Thank you all!

I love your idea! Your website looks amazing. :-) Will there be a way to read the issues if you're not writing for it? Or will it be private for members/writers only?

Hi Hannah! Well, I was

Hi Hannah! Well, I was actually thinking that I'd just make the issues public, if all involved feel comfortable with that. (I'll just use my given name for a byline but not my last, for privacy reasons.)

I want to create a new webpage for each issue, and Weebly allows me to hide it so that it's not visible without an external link on another page--in this case, on the Issues page, I could put a link to each issue once they're finished. (Believe me--I am NOT computer design savvy; Weebly makes it so easy!)

Of course, it can be done virtually any other way as well, if that makes sense! :) I would love to have you girls join, if you're interested. Thanks for checking it out!
