Question writers sought

Post by Great Bustard »

For custom sets I'm using for the classes at ACE camps that I'm teaching. I need a total of 50 tossups (500-600 characters, please) in each of the following four areas:
1. Ancient History
2. European Military History 1500-1900
3. Country Club Bowl (a fun mini-tournament focusing on the finer things in life - tossups on yachting, polo, caviar, expensive automobiles, etc.)
4. The Russian Geography Sideshow (also including historical geography and the geography of all former Soviet republics)

I'll pay $2.50 per question written, please contact me if you're interested. 20 questions in the first two topics will be used for private lessons with videotaped analysis for my students; the other 30 will go along with 50 other questions that someone else is already writing that will compose a singles tournament in these subjects done in a style similar to a NHBB Bee round and finals. Email or private message me if you're interested - this could be a nice antidote to senioritis! I'll need all the questions done by Tuesday June 14, and I'd like to parcel this out to as many people as possible.
