STRANGE HORIZONS LOOKING FOR HELP AGAIN

tanaise_Strange Horizons_ (http://www.strangehorizons.com), the volunteer-run,
award-nominated webzine of speculative fiction, needs to fill two
staff positions:
Development/PR:
The ideal candidate for this non-paying position would be someone who
has worked in fund-raising in the past, but we'll consider any
applicant who has enthusiasm, energy, and two or three hours a week to
spare. Working in our Development group, your responsibilities might
include some of the following activities: helping organize and
administrate our twice-yearly fund drives, coordinating our annual
Reader's Choice Awards and reader survey, helping to promote _Strange
Horizons_ and raise our visibility, and contributing to ongoing
development projects such as grant-writing and building an endowment
fund.
Bookstore Manager:
The bookstore is a vital element in our revenue model; affiliate sales
can bring a magazine a significant amount of money. An ideal
bookstore manager would read our galleys every Sunday, note what
titles are being reviewed, mentioned in articles, mentioned in bios,
etc., and add those titles (with annotations) to the bookstore. We're
sadly a bit behind in this, so there may be some catch-up work at the
start. Applicants must have a basic knowledge of HTML. Estimated
workload: 2 hours/week, plus some additional start-up time.
Candidates for either position can e-mail editor@strangehorizons.com
for more information.
