Final Team North columnist to be selected by readers

Based on the huge response to our search for a sixth Team North columnist, North Valley Magazine is having readers decide who they’d like to see round out the team.

To do this, we’re asking all those interested in becoming a Team North member to submit 1) 300-word sample Team North column on their preferred topic 2) A couple high-resolution headshots 3) 100-word bio.

We’ll post this material here on the blog portion of NorthValleyMagazine.com. To direct our readers to the post, we’ll run a two-page spread in our August/September ’13 issue with a photo, a couple sentences about the writer, and the url where they can read the sample column. The person with the most Facebook likes for their sample column will be invited to become a Team North columnist.

Before following the directions to submit the requested materials, please read the overview of what being a Team North participant entails. Please note that this is an unpaid opportunity that offers a tremendous amount of visibility within the community, one that also establishes the winner as an authority in their field; As such, if the potential columnist is unable to fulfill the responsibilities of a Team North member, this unique opportunity is probably not a good fit for that person.

· A commitment of three original 450-word bi-monthly columns for print publication
