From the Editor-In-Chief of Chicago Blues Blog-A-Zine
Howdy y'all!
Chicago Blues Blog-A-Zine is a new blog/e-magazine discussing and sharing information about blues roots and current blues performers showcasing some cool tunes, linking to excellent videos, and revealing neat info about the world of blues. This blog-a-zine is being published on a monthly basis.
We are looking for guest bloggers who can write good original articles about blues past and present.
You don't necessarily have to be a famous writer or critic, just someone who loves the genre and has something positive to way in an interesting way.
We are publishing monthly but this does not affect you, the guest blogger. We would publish your article as soon as it is submitted, approved, and edited. This means that once you have something written, it does not necessarily have to wait for regular publishing date.
What this also means is that after your article is published and shared around the internet, we also add a summary and link to your article in the next regularly scheduled publishing date. Makes sense?
Articles need to be about BLUES. BLUES RELATED is acceptable. Rock n roll tinged with blues is OK, as well as articles about acoustic blues, country blues, other forms of music that have a strong blues skeleton.
(Now, if your article is really about jazz,check out our jazz page instead!)
Here are some rules about submission:
1. You do not get paid, you get exposure
2. You get listed as a regular guest blogger if you submit 5 blogs each year.
3. Your article must not be an affiliate article
4. We reserve the right to edit your article, but you own the copyright, and you get the by-line
5. Art, photos, videos or music must have permission from the creators. If royalty free, we need proof.
6. Anything unprofessional, contains vulgarity or nudity, or is disparaging to someone’s character is rejected.
7. We may write an introduction to your article or append a closing statement.
8. We want your best work and so it should not appear at any other site, or appear in a re-hashed version.
9. We would like at least 300 words.
10. Write a thesis statement about your subject so we can highlight it for the beginning of the article.
11. If possible, send us a jpg of yourself so we can attach it to our blog or posts.
12. If submitting an article with links to sites or other articles, send in html.
These rules are non-exclusive and may be appended, amended, or changed in any way.
The BENEFITS:
You get exposure and will be considered more than an authority on jazz, you will be considered an entrepreneurial trail blazer by helping our fledgling blog grow in popularity.
Done the right way, we can attach links that you want in your articles to help drive traffic to you. Please also direct people our way, too!
If you have a product that is sold on Amazon (book, cd, etc), we will place that ad on our blog. Yes, we want to sell your product for you and we only get a tiny affiliate fee from the big boys.

Thank YOU!
