How to Apply

Featured Authors:

• Pick a topic from our 'Available Channels' list
• Join PNN
• Use your real name, and upload a good photo for your byline
  
• Set up a site.  Ask as many questions as you want, we'll give as much help as we can.
• Start posting
• Tag all your articles and photos.  Make sure one of the tags includes your subject - like 'politics' or 'sports'. Along with your other tags include the exact word 'authorapplicant'

When you've past the deadline date for that position day, and have tthe requisite page views (if required), let us know by sending us a note with your site address.  Send to: leigh@pnn.com. 

You don't have to post continually (of course we'd love you to and think you'd enjoy it) you can send along your resume at any time.  We suggest 30 days to give you time to see if this is something you like doing, and to see if you are getting any response from the readers.  We do ask that you set up a site to make sure  your comfortable with the system, again, we're around to answer questions.

If you already have a site outside PNN, or are an established journalist and think that it would be a good match, simply contact us directly.

That's it.  We'll watch your progress.  To see how you're doing just log in and look under the 'stats' tab in your preferences.  It will show you how many times someone has looked at your page (called page views).  You can also click on your profile icon at the top of the page to see how many people are subscribing to you, and how many votes you've received.
