Sounds like a cool job! ....can you throw in a C6 Z06 and a gas card?

If I were younger and not married..... (sigh)

I WAS a sportswriter for a while....

Grey Ghost

I have the passion. But, void of any writing skill.

I need a job ! Anything else open I would love the photographer job. Heck, you could even twist my arm and I would attend all the ALMS races and shoot the C6r's ! Carlisle, Bloomington, B-J, etc...I love it all, man.

Thanks for posting it anyway.

Talk about dream job!

Too bad you aren't hiring part-time remote associate editors. I could attend Vette shows on the weekends around the Atlanta area, take photos, and then have a week deadline to submit the articles.

Based in Florida apparently. Have you considered on-line pics, editing and reporting? I'm interested. And yes I will travel.

hmmm, I need a job, I used to make my living as a photographer, but don't have the required writing experience unless you count my being the editor of our local Corvette Club newsletter, and with my previous job as a factory sales rep and working out of my home office I'm used to working with a minimum amount of supervision.

if only I had more writing experience.......

Barry - you should do it. You already have a lot of material in Corvette repair experience and have a knack of getting everyone's interest.

Dan, more like a lot of experience in ATTEMPTED Corvette repair experience followed by trying to fix what I screwed up the first time around!

I think this job is over my head although I wouldn't mind writing some Vette related articles about the Corvette activities on the European continent.
