Hello again!

If you have a great idea for a guide or think you would make a great blog writer, let me know! The fine folks at http://www.mmorpg.com/" rel="nofollow - MMORPG.com and their sister site http://rtsguru.com/" rel="nofollow - RTSguru.com have http://www.rtsguru.com/game/428/Illyriad/" rel="nofollow - given us a developer blog to fill up with almost anything we want! (Almost.) Unfortunately, it can be hard to find the time to write up something that is worthy of publication, so that's where you come in.

If you have an idea for a great blog and are comfortable with having it seen by thousands of readers, post your ideas here or send me an IGM titled "Guest blog". Entries need to be around 800-1500 words and you need to have a decent grasp on the English language. If your English is not so super, I can help with some editing. Just let me know your ideas!

We're shooting to have a blog at least once a month, and there might even be a reward in it for you if you contribute!

Thanks,

GM Rikoo

My suggestion would be to write the blog "in character" as the "lord" or "lady" of your group of cities. The blog would describe what is going on, thoughts, actions... and so on with the objective of giving the readers a flavor of what life is like in Illyriad. It would have to be someone active who gets involved in some of the intrigues, mysteries and so on. But it needs to function as advertising for Illyriad and illustrate just why this game is "different". My 2c.
