PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Summary writer sign-up thread for ABC's The Bachelorette 3" |
This thread is the episode summary writer sign-up thread for ABC's The Bachelorette 3, which premieres Monday, January 10 and will be consist of eight (?) episodes. To sign up, please post your interest in this thread, as well as any applicable date restrictions that you may have. Writer selection will be arbitrary, sorry. Please note however, that we are also running open sign-up threads for several other shows, so if you are planning to reply to more than one of the above mentioned open sign-up threads, it would be helpful if you could note the other shows in your reply, so that we can try and ensure any proposed schedule doesn't schedule you for back-to-back summaries, commit you to more summaries than you were expecting, etc. As a reminder, while all our summary writing is on a volunteer basis, etc. reliablity, timeliness (or at least status communication) is important, and that while we can't offer anyone any $$$, we do occasionally partner with companies to promote stuff and, if we can, I do try and pass some of the goodies. Any questions, please let me know. Thanks,
SB

I'll be glad to do a summary. I'm doing one for my Big Fat Obnoxious Boss on 1/30 and have signed up for The Apprentice and American Idol, so I could do one of the later episodes.

I would be willing to write a Bachelorette summary. Note: As an accountant, I suck at sarcasm and am a pretty serious detail-oriented type so mine would be pretty much a straight summary.

I'd like to take an episode summary -- I did a bunch of these for my novel on reality-TV, and they were by far the most entertaining bits to write. -ESB

Also, I'm wondering if I could get your feedback on a mock-site that St. Martins Press is putting together for my novel, The Virgin. They're trying to spoof The Bachelorette's website (as the book leans heavily on this show), and it includes "episode recaps" and the like. I'm not trying to spam this board (at all), but I figured that if you're looking at a thread on writing episode summaries, you might be interested. Check out: www.thevirginshow.com, and email me (erik@barmack.com) if you feel like discussing. (And I'll happily pull this note if this is too spammy for ANYONE on this thread.)

Greeneyes is on vacation, but I know she'd also like to do one.
