The 'Shroom:Sign up

Sign Up

So, do you want to write for The 'Shroom? Well, you've come to the right place! Here are some steps that you should follow if you want to start writing for the paper.
 * If you need to stray from the release schedule you agreed to when applying for any reason (such as going on vacation or handling an emergency off of the wiki), be sure to contact the Core 'Shroom Staff member that you submit your sections to: we will work something out.
 * If you cannot submit your section for that month, but you have a reliable friend who can fill in for you, then absolutely ask them to provide us with a section in your stead and inform your relevant team director of the arrangement.
 * Feel free to suggest new section ideas or even apply for an already filled position, for we don't mind two different perspectives on a similar subject.
 * If you have any more questions about signing up and writing for The 'Shroom, please contact Meta Knight.

The application form is as follows:

Please privately send your complete application to our Statistics Manager through the forums, IRC, or Discord. The Core Staff will have a week to review your application, and you will receive your results within a couple of days after the week passes. For sections which do not require you to sign up, you may send your section directly to the relevant team director. Team directors reserve the right to reject any sections which do not meet the minimum standards of quality outlined in The 'Shroom Manual of Style.
