April Blog Party

Mar 31, 2011 by Synthaetica in blogging, RadioShow | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

It’s the last Wednesday of the month, which means we’re holding a small contest for blog submissions on the topics noted below. This month is a little different, in that I’ll be going to be soliciting some of the big-name atheist, humanist, secularist, and/or liberal bloggers for permission to reference some of their material. Where relevant, each segment of the show will lead off with such content.

In addition to those authors, our panel will read (excerpts of) the entries aloud and discuss (no, not necessarily eviscerate if we don’t agree) them on the air in our Round Table format. We’ll choose one or two recent blog posts from each of the following categories:

Submission Categories:

  1. Atheism or Agnosticism (note the change from last month)
  2. (Secular) Humanism
  3. Religion
  4. Sociology
  5. Philosophy

Minimum Requirements for Consideration:

  1. Article is “recent” (within the past three months ~ exception might be made in deference to kick-ass authorship)
  2. Article is comprised of at least 600 words
  3. Article contents contain at least 75% unquoted content

Pretty simple, huh?

Authors of the selected articles will be asked to come on the show for a brief interview and to read and discuss their articles. Show participation is not mandatory. There is no monetary award for being chosen.

Submission Guidelines and Deadline:

  1. Submit link(s) to blog post(s) in the comments below
  2. Maximum of 5 links per contestant
  3. Deadline is 10pm EDT April 26, 2011.
  4. Selections will be announced by 10am EDT on April 27, 2011 via unenslaved.com and @Synthaetica (twitter).

Join us Wednesday, April 27, 2011 at 10pm EDT for some unique and dynamic show content from great authors around the Internet!
