Just to change the tone momentarily, this is a recruiting ad.
Are any of our regular (non-trollish) contributors or readers interested in a large freelance writing project in Shanghai?
The job involves contributing approx. 30,000 words to a conceptually superior city guidebook (with plenty of suitably user-friendly urban theory) and will pay more than enough to cover a three month stay in the city + travel expenses.
If interested in finding out more drop me a mail to ccru00@hotmail.com
