What would you like to do for your weekly post at Operation Awesome? Pitch us a new idea, please! *

We are looking to fill ONE spot. Monday will be open. Posts can be scheduled in advance. Does this work for you? *

Yes.

No. (You can stop filling out the form now.)

How experienced are you at using a Facebook page? *

I love using Facebook. I have a page (not just a profile).

I'd pitch in, but I don't use Facebook much.

No experience.

Pass or Pages is the query contest run several times a year. Our new person will read emails from agents and put their feedback into the feedback reveal posts. It's mostly copy and paste with some formatting mixed in. Are you able to do this on Blogger? *

Yes

If someone shows me how once. I'm a fast learner and good with tech.

Operation Awesome is not a book review blog. One of the duties of team members is to kindly thank book review requesters for contacting us, but declining because that is not the purpose of this blog. If it's a debut author, then J handles offering an interview instead. (A review occasionally appears, such as when the team all read a book together. But our general policy is to say no.) Are you comfortable doing this? *

Yes

As an Operation Awesome Team Member, you will have access to sensitive information. Someone might send a query letter, a synopsis, the opening of a book, an ARC of a book, their contact information, etc. By applying, you agree to keep all private information gained through Operation Awesome private and reasonably secure to the best of your ability. Please type "I accept" below. *

In April, the Operation Awesome blog participates in the Blogging from A to Z challenge. The team works together in January/ February to come up with a theme for this. We spend a chunk of March pre-scheduling all of our April posts. Then divide "hop" commenting between us (about 50 blogs each). Will you be willing and able to take part in this? *

Please see the OA blog posts in April 2017, 2018, and 2019 for a better understanding.

Yes

Maybe

What is your current relationship, if any, to Operation Awesome? *

If you know a team member, have entered PoP, wrote a guest post, were featured on the blog, are an avid reader of the blog, etc.

How often have you left comments on the OA blog? *

I have never commented on the OA blog.

I have been commenting several times a month for years.

Anything else that you're "bringing to the table" that you would like us to know about?

Please name your preferred font/label color (other than purple, orange, red, blue, white, gray or black) : *

We at Operation Awesome strive for equality, respect of all people, fairness, kindness to animals, and having a positive message. Are you willing and able to be part of that? *
