Write for the Minnesota Estate Law Blog

by Boyd Johnson on May 20, 2010

Want the opportunity to write for the Minnesota Estate Law Blog and have the chance to be read by the hundreds of readers who visit this blog each month?

The 36th Annual Probate and Trust Law Conference put on by Minnesota CLE is coming up June 7th through the 8th. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend this year. If you’ve been a long-time reader of this blog, you might remember that last year I “live-tweeted” the conference and wrote a review of the conference after it was done.

Since I can’t make it, I’m looking for people who are going to the conference who want to write mini-reviews. These reviews could be about one particular session, a plenary session, the whole conference, or whatever. They don’t have to be long posts– shorter is better.

So if you are a Minnesota attorney, are going to the conference, and want to submit reviews during or after the conference, just contact me via my web-form to let me know. I’ll send you more details by email prior to the conference. Any post or posts you write that are included on the blog will feature your name, firm, and a link back to your own website or your contact information (whatever you choose).

I look forward to hearing from you.
