What is this? In order to provide a place for Doom Patrol fans to highlight their writing, I'm creating this blog for fans to submit for possible publication. We on the admin team will be selecting around 1 piece of writing per month to feature on the site. With time, hopefully this can grow to much more. Why? I've seen a lot of fans propose essay or review style works that they would like to write, but don't know where to start. For us normies who can't pitch our ideas to Buzzfeed Reader or The SYFY Blog, fansites are a great place to build up a solid portfolio and get experience pitching stories. How do I get involved? Send a complete or almost complete story to [email protected] with a link to the Google Doc so we can check out your work. Along with this, provide a one or two line summary of the work you have linked. Make sure "Blog Submission" is in the subject line. What kind of work are you looking for? Episode reviews, retrospectives, comic reviews, essays analyzing specific elements from the show, etc! Anything you can think of, we'll probably accept! For examples, see the links I've added below: www.syfy.com/syfywire/radical-forgiveness-in-the-doom-patrol www.barnesandnoble.com/blog/sci-fi-fantasy/weird-queer-disabled-ugly-a-brief-history-of-doom-patrol/ www.polygon.com/2019/5/23/18636134/doom-patrol-disability-representation-dc-universe Wait, does _ fit that description? If you're not sure your idea is what we're looking for, email [email protected] with a description of your idea. This should be less than a paragraph long and just a basic idea of your story. If we think it works, we'll give you the go ahead and talk again when the story is finished! Make sure "Blog Pitch" is in the subject line. I'm not a professional quality writer..... This is a fan blog! We don't expect NYT level journalists! We're looking for people passionate about Doom Patrol and looking to share this passion with their fellow fans! Anyone is welcome to submit and we look forward to reading your creations!
