MY INTENTION
I am a big fan of SL fashion blogs myself and read them regularly. However, I wanted a bit more for my own blog and decided to request for interviews because I am fascinated by the creativity of the SL residents and would love to share an insight of these creative worlds of fantasy fashion owners and the participating designers, to invite you to explore their event / store locations and to visit the roleplay sites where we wear our fantasy fashion.
HOW MY INTERVIEWS WORK
My interviews are supposed to be like a nice smalltalk while we take a few sips from our virtual cups of coffee ;-) It is very important to me that you feel comfortable and that you enjoy our smalltalk. I want to talk with you about your event and/or label, your themes / creations, your inspiration, your event / store location, upcoming events / sales, and everything else which is worth and interesting to be shared with your (potential) visitors and/or customers and my readers.
DURATION OF INTERVIEWS
Usually, my interviews take about one hour plus additionally 5-10 minutes for a picture with my interview partner(s) at the end of an interview.
PUBLISHING AND PICTURES' PERMISSIONS
All of my interview posts have always been and will always be published with the affirmation of my interview partners only. As soon as I have my post ready, I will always hand out a notecard to you with the text as a draft for review and approval purposes before publishing.
All pictures will either be made by myself (such as picture with interview partner / of event or store location and/or promo copies), or be credited with all needed references if I get your permission to show it (example: a vendor picture embedded from your Flickr stream with the additional note "Picture shown with kind permission by [name]").
All of my pictures and texts are supposed to be free promotion material for your event / store and may therefore always be shared without the need to ask me before. I ask you only to be so kind and fair to give reference about the original author / source and/or link back to my interview post / Flickr picture ;-)
PROMO COPIES
If you'd like to share blogger packages, I will happily use them as promotion material to feature and support your event / store in addition to the interview. But I want to keep that optional and in your sole discretion.
REGULAR COLLABORATION
In case you'd like to work with me as a blogger-interviewer for fantasy fashion on a regular basis, I'd like to propose to you the following (apart from my request to grant me an interview with you as the first step of our collaboration ;-) ):
* as an event owner: promo blog posts within your requirements. 1-2 times per round, such promo blog posts include an additional feature interview with one of your event designers as promotion for the event and the designer. Suggestions whom you'd like to see interviewed are very welcome, otherwise I'll take care of it on my own.
* as a designer/creator: promo blog post minimum 2 times per month with a focus on your event offers. Special offers / sales, or event / hunt participations, or pictures of your new store location after a move, etc. will be highlighted as well.
My collaborations will be limited because I want to be sure that I am able to cope with all blogger requirements, and without stress. ;-)
CLOSING WORDS
There is not much to add but I am very happy if you enjoy my work and my blog! :-) Please always feel free to comment and share. Please also feel free to suggest whom you'd like to see interviewed. I'll do my best to make it happen!
