Call for Brentwood/Westside Bloggers, Reporters, Videographers, Columnists and More!

As you probably already know, I'll be joining AOL's Patch.com next week to build, run and grow Los Angeles' new Brentwood.Patch.com, which I plan to launch before the end of the year.

This means I need Brentwood-located and Brentwood-conversant bloggers/freelancers/columnists/critics/reporters to write about sports, arts, food, schools, health, business, government, roads, politics, culture, films, real estate, local business, restaurants, playgrounds, parking and more. Everything you'd want in a "hyperlocal" news source, we're gonna have it. Videos! Photos! Cartoons! What do you have to add to the community conversation?

This may not be for you but it may be for yours. Patch.com pays fast and fairly and a bird in the hand, etc. Recent grads? Bloggers? Opinionated person? Prep sports freak? We want you!

If you're in Brentwood, or have friends in Brentwood, please forward them this blog post and ask them to email me, dennis.wilen@patch.com with a brief bio and pitch.

Here are my recent contributions to local Patch.com sites: -- check 'em out and you'll see the kind of stuff we're looking for. Videos, too!

Ping our people and we'll ping yours!
