Doesn’t that sound a lot more official than, “Some chicks gave me a position with their website?” No? Sort of deceptive? Yeah, I hear you.
Some chicks gave me a position with their website!
AimingLow is a fantastic humor website (seriously), which is collection of funny writers doing what they do best. Effacing themselves through embarrassment.
They have published several of my pieces over the past few months. I’ve attempted to slime my way into their collective jean shorts (or “jorts”) through repeated begging.
And unlike my online petition to be considered for Jet Magazine‘s “Man of the Year” they have actually paid attention.
I join an elite group of writing warriors called the “Comic Relief Roster.”
It’s kind of like being the head of the JV volleyball squad. You’re not varsity, but you’re still spiking the ball once in awhile. There may be an opportunity down the road should I endear myself to their readers, and become a staff writer.
I’m very excited, and clearly bragging.
If you’re a blogger, you need to get to AimingLow’s Non-Conference near Atlanta in October. I’ll be there along with some of the funniest bloggers online. Basically it’s a conference without all the extraneous crap – you actually go there to learn real strategy on how to build an audience and network with other bloggers. Also, it’s free, which is unheard of for a blogging conference.
Okay, I’ll keep you updated with AimingLow starts publishing my stuff. I have something in the hopper already for them that should go live in a week or so.
I can’t stress enough how great this website is – check it out and read the posts. Amazing writers.
