Here at Art Attack, we’re always looking for new writers to go with the wonderful voices we already have.

So if you’ve even thought about writing for us, now could be your golden moment. We’re looking for people who love the immediacy and community of blogdom. And who can be accurate, make deadline, take instruction and have a passion for reporting about their subjects.

We’re looking for people who write about fashion, pop culture, architecture or ballet. We need people who aren’t just event-based — though that coverage is important too — but also able to extrapolate, evaluate and analyze the oddities and triumphs of our time.

If interested, gather up a cover letter and résumé, along with about five samples of journalistic writing you’ve already done (no poems or books please) and e-mail them to margaret.downing@houstonpress.com. No phone calls please.
