Call for Book Reviewers
RAWSISTAZ (and BlackBookReviews.net)
is in search of avid readers/writers interested in being reviewers for The
RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (TRR). We are looking for both volunteer guest reviewers and
team members for TRR. (And, we have not limited it to readers only this time
around; authors are welcome.) This is not a paid position, but books are
supplied and your byline is on all reviews.
One of the major requirements is that you read at least 4-6 (or more) books
monthly. This isn't the number you'll have to review (though it would be
wonderful), but we like to know that your review books will not conflict with
your personal reading or book club obligations. Also, you should be able to
read/review a book in a two week window. And lastly, you must answer email
promptly. Our team produces quite a bit of email.
If you're interested, please send the following information to TRR-Admin(at)rawsistaz(dot)com,
and we will get back with you within 3 to 5 days.
Serious inquiries only as we are filling these spots immediately.

You will then be asked to write a sample review (not one previously used) and

can see our repository of 5000+ reviews.
Thanks in advance for your interest. We are hoping to add 4-5 new reviewers to
our team, which has been reviewing over 8 years, providing a much-needed
service to the African-American literary community.
