Hello fellow Porsche fans. I’m a magazine publisher and am in the early stages of developing a new magazine dedicated to the cars we love so much. This new periodical will be like none other. I’m currently looking for editorial contributors. I’d like to find capable authors with expertise in model category (i.e. a 993 expert, a 944 expert, etc.). Along with looking for contributors I do have some full-time in-house (southern California) editorial positions available. Qualified candidates must, first and foremost, be passionate about Porsche automobiles, exhibit strong grammar and writing skills, be easy to work with, as well as have strong grasp of things technical and mechanical. All published contributors will receive compensation.

As I mentioned earlier I am in the early stages of putting things together. If you are interested please email me at mikev@rc411.com

Please include name, geographical location (city, state), and lastly why you feel you would be qualified to write for a first class periodical. After receiving your email I will be in touch within two weeks.

Thanks for your time.

Can you tell us anything more about the specific focus of the magazine? Sounds like a lot of fun.

I can't spell worth a sh__, and my grammer completely sucks, and I am no tech guru! I do have a great love for the car and currently live in Germany, where I do know a couple Porsche experts!
So maybe combined we can put together a project or two...we do the project (send images,timeline, tech-info and such) while you combine it all and write the story? Just a thought.

Thanks for the response. The new title will aim for a younger demographic than the current domestic titles. There will be a fair amount of how-to type articles both very specific to models and some general for all Porsche owners. Product tests, not just press releases. Monthly columns for owners of models other than the 911. Interviews with well known Porsche owners (celebs) with the focus of the interview being on their cars or there passion for the marquee. And much more that. We plan to advertise the new mag on Rennlist and other Porsche BB's early next year.

Hey Mike -

I'd be interested in helping out in the 944 series area.

I'm in New Hampshire. Feel free to email me if you like.

Thanks!

Mike:

I would also be interested in contributing. The magazine sounds like a nice blend of how-to/technical articles and lifestyle pieces. Please contact me directly and I would gladly provide my C.V.

Given my ownership, 3.2 Carreras would be my area of "expertise" and I know many other owners of this fine car that could assist in areas that I am not proficient.

Sounds good. E- l me and let me know more details. I am a early 911 guy 69 to 73.

Thanks
