Guest Bloggers Wanted
I’ll be out of town on vacation for the last 10 or so days of June, and I’m looking for some guest bloggers to fill my shoes… This is an open call to readers, whether or not you run a weblog of your own. Here’s what I ask… Submissions should be on topic (i.e., personal finance-related) and properly formatted for publication (I’m thinking here mainly of links).
Articles should be your own work – please don’t rip off someone else’s writing and try to pass it off as your own. While I’d prefer completely original content, I might consider republication of your own work.
What’s in it for you? Fame and fortune, of course. Actually, that’s not true. While there might be a small amount of fame involved, there really won’t be any fortune. Here’s what I’ll do: (1) properly attribute the writings to you, and (2) I’ll also provide a link back to your site (if you have one, and assuming that it’s non-spammy and family-friendly) right off the bat, at the top of the article. I’ll also provide a link to your RSS feed or an about (or welcome) page if you provide me with one.
If you’re interested, simply send your submissions to me via my handy-dandy contact form with the following subject: Guest Blog Submission. Please be sure to tell me: (1) whether or not you’ve published this elsewhere, and (2) the name (or pseudonym) that you wish me to use when acknowledging your efforts. Please also provide me with a link to your site, your about/welcome page and/or your RSS feed if you’d like those included in your acknowledgement. Title suggestions are also encouraged.
I can’t promise that I’ll publish every single submission, but I’ll try to run anything that is both coherent and on topic. Please note that I reserve the right to edit submissions prior to publication (mainly for grammar, typos, or perhaps a tiny bit of style). Also note that, once published, your work will become a permanent part of the FiveCentNickel Archives.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to leave a comment or drop me a line via my contact form. Thanks.

And broken into a series of 100 separate posts, right? Thanks, but no thanks.

Ok, but I was just trying to help you out.

Hey nickel, you should check out guest-blogger.com. We just launched it a few weeks ago. It’s free and it helps bloggers offer and find guest blogging opportunities.

Nickel, is there some kind of a deadline?
June 16th, 2007 at 10:26 am
Ideally I’d like to have the articles by this weekend, but I should be able to deal with some late submissions as we don’t leave ’til Tuesday night (or Wednesday morning) and I’ll have intermittend internet access while we’re away.
