THE PRINTED BLOG is the first print newspaper of its kind, made up entirely of blogs and other user generated content. We’ve developed a and new model for the newspaper industry that has garnered intense media attention around the world, and we want you to be a part of it.

***

We are in search of exceptionally talented bloggers and other content creators in the L.A. area to help us fill upcoming issues with the very best the web has to offer. Specifically, we’re looking for today’s most compelling content, the hottest and most scandalous pictures and gossip, and the most wildly entertaining blog posts.

***

WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

Your words. Your observations. Your experiences. Your ideas. Your advice. Your unique perspective on life in southern California. If you’ve lived it, people want to read it.

Maybe you’re an aspiring actor with a fresh, comical – or even tragic – perspective on trying to make it in a down economy.

Maybe you’re a screenwriter who blogs regularly on the tricks and trials of your trade.

Maybe you’ve been blogging about your band, struggling to get noticed in an American Idol world.

Maybe you’re an agent who’s seen it all, ready to launch a tell-all blog full of shock and awe.

Maybe you’re all about the VIP, touring the party circuit and rubbing elbows (among other things) with the Hollywood haves and has beens. Do tell!

Maybe you’re a legendary screenwriter in waiting, killing time online and perfecting your craft.

Or maybe you’re just a casual observer who has an uncommon way with words.

If you have a blog, or take original photographs and share them online, and would like to increase traffic to your site so more people can become aware of your talent and/or unique perspective, e-mail us today.
