My Friends are Going to Be So Jealous

When I was younger I was always in awe of characters in spy movies or thrillers who had the proper “credentials.” You know what I mean, folks who couldn’t get through a certain door or checkpoint without the proper paperwork. “Here are my credentials.” they’d say with importance. I was never exactly sure what credentials were, but I knew they were important.
Now I can get me some for myself:
write a review about an indepedent film you enjoyed…

hello…..
Concreto Magazine is an independent publication focused on politics, art, music, film and fashion. For our first issue, we’re inviting writers and enthusiasts to pitch feature articles or reviews on any topic. Please send us a brief summary and title for your proposed piece. If it fits with our vision – producing a vivid panorama of modern culture – we will be in contact.
All articles are published with by-lines and contributors will be paid in issues initially.
hope to hear from you…

- Compensation: credentials
I wonder how I’ll receive my credentials. Surely something so importance isn’t paypaled to my email box or even snail mailed to my home. At the very least I’d expect express delivery. Something of this magnitude will probably arrive via armored car. I hope they call before delivery so I’ll be home.
I can’t wait to try and get in somewhere the little people aren’t generally allowed and saying “here are my credentials.” My friends will be green with envy.

They should be small and unmarked. If you start flashing around lots of big, impressive credentials, people will become suspicious.
Well, then, CC… I wouldn’t respond to this particular ad if I were you. It’s bound to come with lots of big, impressive credentials. I mean, it IS an unfinanced fanzine that hasn’t even published an issue yet… I can only imagine the blinding spotlight that would be shining on you if you accepted their “invitation” to pitch free articles that “fit with their vision”!
