Hey! Go look on my friends page or go to my profile and click on the "socialwork" community. Someone put a notice up for contributors that says:

Hey all,

I'm an editor for Below the Belt, a virtual forum designed for constructive discussion about gender, sex, and sexuality, and everything related.

We're looking for new bimonthly and guest contributors, and I had a strong feeling a number of you would be a really good fit, so please check out the site and see if you might be interested in applying!

Best,
-toughstuff/blackroot

But go to the posting because it has the links and everything :) I thought of you the moment I read it, it would be cool to get more of your writing out there.
