#assistant admins

Over the past few months, we’ve been trying to deal with an incredible increase of followers and fans on our blog, AUideas. It’s been amazing interacting with you all for the past couple of years and we can’t wait to continue doing so, but the influx of fellow writers has also led to an influx of requests. At the moment, we have exactly 417 asks in our inbox, almost all of which are AU requests - the involvement on this blog is amazing, and we can’t thank you all enough, but we’re both kind of drowning in the amount of involvement you’re giving us (we practically have involvement coming out of our ears at this point). So, we’ve decided to take on a few assistants to help us write AUs!

Calling all writers & fans of AUideas! We’d like to take on two to three Assistant Admins (“AA” for short) who will help us write AUs so we can aim to release 5 AU lists on AU Fridays and perhaps 2 AUs on our normal weekdays. This is more than double what we produce now; we need to do so as the blog itself has grown to an incredible size (13,583 of you!). 

Keep in mind, however, that the position itself will not be full-blown admin status. As an Admin Assistant, we’ll ask you to create two original AUs plus one AU list each week by putting them in our drafts - you will of course be credited in each post you create, but the Admins reserve the right to changing an AU or fixing grammar mistakes before posting (in addition, we ask that you don’t post an AU before getting the permission of one of the Admins). The only difference between the Admin position and the Assistant Admin position is that you won’t have Admin Privileges on the blog and will act as a Member (click here to learn about Admin Privileges).

We don’t have very many requirements if you’re looking to become involved in the application process: all we ask is that you are consistent, dedicated, accessible, over the age of 17, a fluent English speaker, and most of all, a huge fan of writing with an enormous amount of ideas to share. If you’re interested, please submit the completed form to our inbox with these questions answered:
