UPA Wants You

Unruly PaperArts is looking for 5 to 10 regular columnists to fill out our team.

Unruly PaperArts will include articles and tutorials for all crafting levels in a variety of different styles and formats. Our features will range from step-by-step projects to technique tutorials to reviews to design concepts and more. As the blogozine title suggests, our main focus will be on the experience and exploration of papercraft and mixed media rather than any staid instruction manual. Inspiration and imagination will be our hallmarks with a little edgy attitude thrown in for good measure. We are Unruly after all!

What do you need to do? Here's the scoop:

To apply for a columnist position with Unruly PaperArts, email rogueredheaddesigns@gmail.com with "Columnist Application" in the subject line.

• Columnists will be expected to complete 3 columns in their chosen specialty over the course of the 6-month term, utilizing our issue themes as inspiration and guidance.
  
• Columnists will also be expected to provide at least one sample piece of art for each of 2 Reader Art Dares over the course of the 6-month term.

Please include the following in your application:

• Name and blog address
  
• Current and previous design teams
• Publication credits if any
  
• 3 to 5 links to work you have already created
• a brief description of your style

We will accept applications from February 11 until March 10, 2012. We will send out Columnist invitations for the open spots by March 20, 2012.

Want to contribute but not on a regular basis? Well, we want you too! To submit potential articles as a Unruly Contributor, please see the requirements under Contributor Calls.

For contributor material we will accept tutorials, step-by-step projects, demonstrations of product and themed inspiration articles. Contributor submissions are welcome at any time but there are limited spots per issue.

Unruly PaperArts will premiere in April 2012! We hope to see you all there!
