The Matticus Kingdom is in dire need of assistance.
We are going to be having a major construction project coming up in a few weeks that may necessitate that I, as the court jester, have my attention, abilities, focussed elsewhere. Something about 24/7 demands needing to be fulfilled…
We have lots of available positions across multiple disciplines (fiction, humor, photography) and at all levels (new hire, some experience, advanced knowledge).
If you are in the market for additional employment (of the unpaid and often unrewarding variety) please submit your resumes (guest posts) to djmatticus@yahoo.com. They will be reviewed on a first come, first served basis; but we will reach out to everyone who is interested with an interview time (feedback/posting date/etc…).
We anticipate the openings becoming available near the end of March and to continue off and on into April and possibly May. If that timeframe works well with your schedule, we’d love to hear from you. If that timeframe doesn’t work for you, we’d still love to hear from you because we can probably squeeze you in before then.

Part of the inspiration for asking for help was two recent requests I received to guest post for other sites. You can (and should) check them out here:

The Matticus Kingdom 
count on me!
Woohoo!
I may be interested…will you be providing prompts?
I can provide prompts… but I’d be just as happy for you to write something like you normall would too. If you want a prompt, send me an email and I’ll send you some suggestions, how does that sound?
I will try my best to come up with something thought provokingly hilarious.
Hooray! Thank you. I’m looking forward to it.
🙂
Hey Merbear: if Matticus would be interested, would you be interested in doing a cooperative post about those yellow Swedish flowers, maybe? (Hey Matticus: see the dog poo post and you’ll see what I mean.) What do you both think?
I’m in!
The Matticus Kingdom supports this union…
😀
Sweet! Let’s see what he says! What do you have in mind? I was kind of thinking about a passive-aggressive advice column about dealing with annoying neighbors, people in grocery stores, etc.
This could be a lot of fun. 😉
My brain is clicking a long slowly but surely. Matticus said he approves of this union. 😉
Woo hoo! After this surgery I’ll drop you a line and we can chat about it. 🙂
Surgery? Are you alright?
Yeah, just minor stuff related to the anemia. 🙂
{{hugs}}
Thanks! I need it. 😦
{{hugs}}
I wanted to just type ditto… but, copying and pasting seemed like the better option.
😀
Thanks. I could certainly use the hugs. Not feeling great today.
Curse you deceptive smiley face! Making us think you are a-okay! I shake my fist at thee.
Feel better! The King, er, um Jester, has spoken!
Uh oh! It’s a command! Guess I better … um …. get better!
Thanks. 🙂
(I do mean that smiley face … honest!)
😀
Merbear is interested … is it a “go” then? I’m waiting to hear her ideas and have a few of my own too. 🙂
Houston, we have lift off. It’s a go, it’s a go….
Woo hoo!
Hmmm….I’ll see if I can come up with anything.
Awesome. Would love to have the storm trooper stop by for a visit… or that other personality of yours too. 😉
Yeah, I probably need to let him out. It’s been a while and he’s get cranky. Even more so then usual.
Bring on the Blunt Life Coach!
Are you sure you want that vile language and harsh attitude here? I have no problem doing it if that’s what you’d like.
Yay. I love BLC!
I wouldn’t want it all the time, and please do provide a disclaimer at the top (or, as the host I can do that bit of upkeep, not a problem); but, yeah, that would be great. You could even do two – one as the your normal charming self, and one as the BLC if you are up for it. I have no idea how many days I’m going to need to cover (but I assume it is going to be a lot), so the more the merrier.
Okay…. Just remember… You asked for it!
– – – – – Official Proclaimation – – – – –
Hear ye, hear ye, The Matticus Kingdom asked for it.
Haha!
I might be tempted depending on the subject…
The subject can be whatever you want it to be! I’d love for you to share some of your photographs with my faithful readers! You can even make it a bit cheeky – and post something about the Blackpool Football Club to fly in the face of my staunch Manchester United support. 😛
HA I know very little about Football even though I grew up in Manchester where both the Man Utd and Man City grounds are. I lived quite close to the United ground in Stretford. So there you have it lol. I would love to share some photo’s with your readers. 🙂
Hooray!
Yes I’m in
Hooray! 😀
Would love to do it if you need something written. Just not on a Friday, I just can’t compete with your Friday. 🙂
Great. Was hoping you’d want to play along. Your posts are always insightful and though provoking – we can use some of that here in the kingdom to combat all the silliness. We can work out scheduling later so you don’t have to compete with Fridays.
If only I were funny. If only I were witty. If only I could write sonnets, poems, and ditties.
I’d like to try my hand at trying my hand.
I think you should try your hand for sure… and what better way than to do a test run on someone elses site where you won’t alienate any of your normal readers. Instead of guest blog, think of it as a focus group, or marketing research, or… 😀
Or you could just create a coherent post by stealing movie quotes that work together to tell a completely new story… For some reason I think that’d be right of your alley.
Normal readers? I don’t have ANY readers! 🙂 I like your suggestion. I will try that. Wish me goodwill hunting.
How do you like them dead poets?
I like’em from dusk ’til dawn.
That’s when Batman and Robin are at their worst.
Matt, thank you for the opportunity to submit a guest post. My life now has meaning. My bowels move regularly. And my mother will finally be able to get that surgery.
I can’t thank you enough.
W’oh, w’oh, w’oh! We don’t work miracles here in the kingdom – our miracle max position has not yet been filled – but, we are very happy that you’ve submitted something to get posted and we are certain our legion of loyal subjects will enjoy it.
Then again, I’m just the jester, so what do I know. 😛
Thanks again for sending over the post! As soon as I’ve got it in a good draft form I’ll send it over for your review.
“Of the unpaid and often unrewarding variety” –> Haha! Methinks it would still be rewarding. 😀 Can I let my little words prance around your kingdom? Any topic will do? ^_^
Of course you may! And, yes, any topic will do! Though now I sort of want to hear more about you prancing about my kingdom…. 😉
Now that’s an idea! 😀 Just let me know about the schedule and I’ll prance away. 😀
When you are all set to go, just send me an email, and I’ll take care of the rest from my end.
I look forward to reading the contributions, although I’ll miss my daily dose of Sir dj. But you do have to take care of your beautiful wifie and the new arrival. 🙂
I’ve been told that I may still be able to find some time to come on and post a few times a week; and I’ll definitely try to do that, I just want to be prepared in case I disappear into a black hole for awhile there (especially at the beginning).
Oh you’ll have your hands busy alright, but you’ll love it. 🙂
Now I’m seeing all this competition for this guest blogger spot… It makes me nervous…Any who, my friend may submit something as well. She loves wine- who doesn’t?!- and she blogs about it http://www.poundgrape.wordpress.com Pretty amazing! k, bye!
Nothing to be nervous about. It isn’t a competition! If you submit something, it will get posted, that’s the way it works! ;-D
