'It's Houstonist, and I helped!'

It's a busy time for Houstonist: We're doing interviews, we're writing about stupid criminals, we're doing more interviews, we're building a car ... so why aren't you helping?

We're still looking for contributors to help us cover every part of the Bayou City, from news to sports to the arts to restaurants to clubs — basically, everything of interest to Houstonians. Not only will you have the chance to write about what you love, but you'll be able to impress your friends by adroitly switching between third and first person and your mom can tell her friends you're a local blog rock star (however she'd choose to phrase that).

All you have to do is let us know you're out there. Drop us an e-mail at jim(at)houstonist(dot)com with some information about yourself and why you'd be a good fit at Houstonist. You might want to include a sample post, too, just to show us what you can do. We're waiting.
