Why Join Angry Anime Bitches?
AngryAnimeBitches Anime Blog is young but active blog where we enjoy working together as a team. The benefits of joining are pretty simple, first and foremost you don’t have to worry about constantly modifying the blog or anything of the sort and can devote 100% of your focus to solely writing. But it’s much bigger than that for us, the fact of working as a team isn’t just to cover as many shows as possible, but to also meet new people who share the same common interest and become good friends with them.
What are we looking for?
Dedication, Motivation and Passion for Anime
People who do not have any of the above are not fit to write with us on the blog. I do not have patience for people who sign up as “regular blogger” to fall behind more than two weeks, and you are expected to stick to schedule. If you’re sick, if you’re going on vacation or if you have an exam, inform us within 48 hours beforehand or earlier.
In short, as soon as you make a commitment, I expect you to follow through till the season ends.
Applying as a Writer:
I am looking for people who have decent writing skills. I am not expecting formal essay format, vocabulary and all that stuff. It’s all about pouring your emotions and stating your impression (*aka how you felt) about the episode. Write us a sample draft of how would you write up an entry. This way, we can see what your writing style is.
This must be written in Word Document and titled as SUBJECT (below) and your Nickname. This will be attached to the email. If not, it will immediately go into the trash bin.
- SUBJECT: Applying as a Writer for AngryAnimeBitches
- REASON: State the reason why you would like to join our team
- EXPERIENCE: How long have you been watching anime? Have you blogged before? What got you interested into this, etc…
- SAMPLE: A sample draft of how you would write an entry. It may be any anime of your choice (Make sure it’s only about a specific episode, not the entire series).
How will I know if I made it into the team?
Depending on how many applications we get, we will try to email you back whether you made it or not within a week’s notice. If there aren’t enough to consider it may be slightly longer, and we will notify you on the day we decide to make the announcement.
Remember if you don’t make it the first time, you can always try again when we are recruiting. First come first serve will only happen if we are satisfied with your application. If not, it won’t change anything whether you were the first person to email us.
*If you apply while we are FULL, your application will be put on hold (you will be notified this) and you will receive some feedback as soon as we are recruiting again. Note that we may not contact you about whether you made it or not for at least two weeks after we announced we are looking for writers.

D: OH NOES, IT’S FULL?!

^_^/ Even though it’s full at the moment, if you wish to apply you can still send in the application so that perhaps you may gain the spot when there is one open.

I saw you none of your bloggers want to really do the new Gundam show, possible I can guest blog to cover the gundam age anime for you all?
October 4, 2011 at 08:04
Thank you for your interest, but we don’t accept Guest Bloggers and Oki and I actually really are looking forward to covering Gundam AGE as mentioned in the Preview post.

Thanks Eva for the response, I’ll look forward in reading your blogs. When your staff opens up, I’d love to try for one of those open spots.

We might open for the Winter depending on Zero’s and Myst’s school workload. I had originally considered opening it again for the Winter 2011 until Myst announced that she has a bit of time to cover a few things this season, but we won’t know till later whether they think they’ll be able to balance the workload since their schedule will change again. But feel free to submit an application anytime so that whenever we are looking for writers and you’ll be one of the candidates to consider.

I would love to blog, if I am allowed.
Are there still spots open?
September 28, 2012 at 01:58
when does the application period for winter 2013 end?
September 28, 2012 at 14:33
There’s no due date yet, but if I had to choose right now, I would say Mid-November or so.
December 16, 2012 at 19:25
What exactly does the schedule look like for a writing position here? Im interested in applying, just have to make sure I can continue to do it when I am back at school.
December 16, 2012 at 19:37
It depends on how many shows you’re interested in blogging, but it’s likely that at least some of the shows will fall on weekdays, most commonly Thursday/Friday. I’m at school as well, and I’ve worked out a system where I leave some time for blogging on nights when I have shows to cover, after finishing (or failing xD) the work I’ve gotta do. It’s worked pretty well, and I cover a lot of shows, though it’ll take some time to get used to when first starting out. So it’s possible, but goes in hand with commitment.

Like Vantage had mentioned, it’s crucial to organize your time properly. If your studies is going to be very time consuming and you won’t be able to blog for most of the week, it’s probably better to wait until you know you have more time on your hands. Most importantly you have to understand being part of the team means making a big commitment, and we expect you to follow through from start to finish.

i would if i could (to be honest id love to since i love watching anime and reading and writing lol) but ive got school :/ im a year 9 so im starting GCSE’s o.o;; oh and dont get me started on maths… (but on english :3) now im kind of yapping on
-_-;; i could join once im in college lol but that would be in 3 – 4 years… O_O;; i didnt even notice
-edit- but on saturdays and sundays i can do it since i mainly do all nighters :3 (i tend to do quite a few all nighters or most nighters fom 9pm to 3-4 am) but it will probably be at nights. also is it possible to blog through an android phone? because i have a android phone and -facepalm- my brother uses the computer a lot since he is finishing his exams e.c.t i could use my phone. i dunno since im pretty new xD

Blogging from a smartphone no, it wouldn’t work out. You need to use a computer.
For starters since you’re pretty new, it doesn’t hurt to practice or start blogging on your own personal blog, (livejournal, blogger, wordpress, tumblr- whichever you like- especially since you can post whenever you want to or have time to). It will help you get into a routine and shape up your writing style and you will know whether you want to invest your free time into this. Whenever you do have more time on your hands, feel free to send in your application. :3

mmkay ^_^ i already use tumblr so i had some experience on posting :3 i’ll wait till i done all the major GCSE (in year 11 thing cool down abit, especially in study leave where you can chill despite the name, my bro is playing mass effect during that time -_-;;) -jumps out of seat- alright i know what to do =^_^= im in yr 10 soon so not long, but the exams O^O;;

is this free?! can I join?
April 19, 2013 at 16:44
If you are referring to “free” as requesting to join and being accepted right away- not it’s not. Read over the guidelines, and then send us your application. However as of right now, we are full so we are not accepting anymore remembers (you can still send your application though, it will be put on-hold until we open up again). When we start recruiting writers again, we will contact you and then during a set time frame we will get back to you about whether you have been accepted or not.
April 19, 2013 at 16:53
ok.. i understand, I will send the application.. but i wanna ask if i was accepted, can’t I make shifts with someone who’s writing about a currently anime?
April 19, 2013 at 17:06
No you can’t. :\ Sorry.
We look forward to your application. :3
