I got this in my inbox the other day. It’s the second email of it’s kind so I think they might be serious.
Hey Brody,
This is Jesse from Relevant. I wanted to see if you would be interested in doing some blogging for Relevantmagazine.com. The new blog wouldn’t launch for a while, but we want to go ahead and get some people lined up.
Let me know if you are interested.
Thanks!

See, this is the sort of thing i dream of!! Never happens to me tho! hook me up Brody, im a fount of knowledge! X
Sweet! Someday, I hope to submit material to a popular site. I look forward to seeing how the process works for you.
Oh man, you got to do it!
It could be real fun if they pay you too. I believe with the network you have to offer and the ability you have as a writer deserves a little compensation. I don’t just say that as a friend, but I say that as a fan of your blog as well.
Dooooo it! Seriously!
Sounds like a great opportunity. Go for it!
ok. im jealous.
Brody - not to rain on your parade b/c I would like nothing more than to see you write for relevant’s blog - BUT if you read the ‘news and notes’ (or whatever they call that front section) in the current issue they have an open call for bloggers to write for them… so ally, Cool Dad, & Joel - go on and get it!
No rain here, JM. I say everyone go for it.
That’s cool.
There may be an “open call” but how many actually get to do it in the end? And, how many are asked?
Hope it works out for you.
Alymc has a point - The fact that you were asked means “your reputation precedes you…” and they are probably monitoring this blog…you should write something off the wall.
Matt, I have an um, friend, who would like to contact Relevant about this, but I, I mean, he doesn’t get the magazine. Does it say who, um, he should contact?
Cool Dad…are you asking me for a contact…?
I will get it tonight and post it tomorrow on my blog with a link back here. Since - this is where it all began…
I am officially jealous!!!
Very cool. Jesse CRACKS ME UP on the podcast, so I’m just jealous that you got an email from him.
I say totally do it. Why not?
Matt - yes, that’s my failed-joke way of saying, can you give me a contact? Thanks!!
Done - the info is up.
or if you’d just like the contact info - looks like it is:
feedback@relevantmagazine.com
I say, go for it Brody!
