As some of you know, I have developed a bad case of tunnal carpal syndrome in my left arm from my wrist to my under arm triggered by the reaction I had to the antibiotics, yes, more tendon damage, and it doesn't help that I am on the keyboard for hours on end (although, I have probably crept my typing speed up to 100 wpm. Hee.). It's strange that my feet are getting better, and my arm is getting worse, but then through this healing period, I have used my arms/hands/fingers to type, but stayed off my feet most of that time.
I am in a great deal of pain while trying to type just this, and daily while trying to keep the site and the club going. What I do requires several hours on the keyboard each day. Until I can get the inflammation down in my left arm, I don't really know how I will be able to keep up. I would like to reserve most of my typing for growing the chapters and replying to member's posts, since I think the member's posts may just be the most personal contribution to this site I can make. I have many jobs here at the BRS, and they all involve my communicating with people through the keyboard. I am not asking for you to take on all of these jobs, just one...
I am needing help with someone taking over the news on the front page. You need organizational skills, a writing ability, and a desire to help. Basically, you add a Member Profile of the Week and Member Blog of the Week every Monday, which I will send to you. For the Member Profile, you write an article about the member being profiled. And you try to add one fresh story per day. At this point, I would accept just two new stories per week and the two Member features. Normally, these things come from member's race reports or other things I find and work on to produce.
If you would be interested but think for even just a moment, you will not be able to follow through and maintain this effort for at least two months, then please do not apply. I would rather not have to go through multiple people to find someone who could help out. At the same time, if you like it down the road, it could turn into something long-term, if you wanted it to. I really need help in this area. The pain is quite intense at times. It would really help to have someone else do some of the site's typing and inputting because it is critical that we keep the site fresh with new information and keep the membership growing.
Of course, as always, it's a voluntary position, and either you or I can end the relationship at any time for any reason...no hard feelings.
Thanks for your consideration.
