Looking for blog article writers/creators
Hey All,
We're looking for some writers for a short series of articles we'd love to add to our blog.
If you think writing is your thing, and you want to help others with making music on mobile, then we'd love to hear from you.
The articles will be sometimes posted and linked to from our apps.
Just drop us a line on [email protected] if you're tempted.
// Blocs Team
.P.S. We won't be able to cater for everyone, but hopefully over time, we might._

Cool thanks! I dropped an email.
I would but I'm already behind on review articles I'm writing for someone else
Very good idea though, as there is more interesting stuff and techniques for Blocs than many may first imagine. It's simplicity hides its true nature

cc @AudioGus May not be a writer, but he knows this app a hell of a lot better than I do, apparently.
Would I want to read a long, rambling Dennis Miller-esque diatribe about the lack of standards and compatibility in mobile music making? Yes. Yes, I would.
@Kaikoo2 cooks up a mean tutorial
Hey, I resemble that. Diatribes with off-topic self-denigrating rambly rubbish, absolutely, but I don't think I've ever written three words about 'lack of standards and compatibility in mobile music making?'
Stumbles off into the wood muttering 'the man knows nothing of my work....'
I am still (somewhat) determined to have @Kaikoo2 front a podcast series....
If you're to be a respected, professional blogger, it must be done. Also, I couldn't figure out a better subject because you seem to like and own them all.
Hmm, thanks for the heads up... I am a fan of ye olde app for sure... hmmm... currently doing a stream of consciousness Blocs Mega Mix thing could be interesting to some but dayum not much time in the day!
Well played, sir. You win this round.
I believe a Goodyear podcast would be quite the event too
As the ladies of the night will tell you it can be hard to do for pleasure that which, in different clothing, others pay for...
That is quite wise. Of course, you can have a subscription podcast...but that would feel dirty.
I think you should do it, but only if you keep strictly to your personal style.
I would also like to read an Amazon review by Kafka describing in morbid detail his experiences with a juice extractor, but this will have to do.
I've found myself wondering if some of the great essayists and letter writers of yore are visible today as e-commerce review writers and blog commenters.
Good implied question. @blocsxnovation is this potentially a paid gig? Cash, gear, coupons or otherwise?
That would be sweet, but I highly doubt it. If anyone here is truly an aspiring blogger/writer/content specialist, I suggest throwing your name in the hat. It's good exposure and a nice add to your résumé, CV, or portfolio.
Pickled egg and half a Johnson's for 500 words, picked at random?
JFC!

Wish I had that 20 years ago. tl;dr: All branches from the 'Is it for a legitimate business?' branch end up in No.
That said, it's totally missing branches like "Is it fun for you?" and "Would you be excited enough afterward to make up for the time invested?" and "Is it likely to get you laid?" and...
Actually I wasn't inferring possible payment, but it's a fair question. In other news, the truth is that decent writing IS a good way to get laid, but I guess that's true of all forms of communication done well...
Indeed, legitimate businesses by definition are likely to use your work to encourage cash to flow their way, meaning the work has value to them and merits compensation from those who can afford the full rate.
If those circumstances make an automatic yes for you (as they likely do for many), then decision made, case closed, further question puzzling is pointless, so why provide for auto-yes circumstances in a chart designed to help you decide what you already decided?
I used to do bits of web work and illustration for free, until I realised that's what those on the receiving end valued it at, which was nothing. Never again.
I used to do free illustration work when I was %100 free to do whatever I want and they were clearly grateful for the work. I would still do it if I had more spare time.
Depends on your definition of grateful - they were happy to get the work for free but the work itself was awarded of no value whatsoever - despite the fact several of them went on to rip me off by selling the work as prints and for business use. The tossers didn't even give me a credit for what I'd done and the whole thing ended in bad feeling. One actually tried to claim copyright ownership for my work - meaning I'd have to pay them if I used a copy of my own work.
Never, ever again. And my advice for anyone starting in web/design/illustration would be to ask for payment, even if just a minimal fee. In my 35 year experience in 'the trade' if you don't put a monetary value on what you do then it'll be perceived as value-less by the recipient.
I'd point out all of the above was for business and profit making organisations, probably not the case for charities or not for profit stuff.
I edit everything I read, which keeps me focused on the details. This habit has landed me some credits on manuals, which are good for a portfolio, and references. Beta testing I enjoy because I like evaluating tech platforms. And since I'm new to music production, it's a good way to connect with some like-minded creatives, with a tangible need to learn the tools, and to produce something.
Like mummy done say: The more you pay the more it's worth...
