WordPress Blogger

I am looking to assemble a team of writers (up to 5) each offering their own unique take and having a nice blend of voices, opinions etc. The main sections of the site are Themes, Plugins and Tutorials but I would also like to look into adding a news section on the site.

You will need a strong grasp of the English language and I would prefer if we could get a gravatar and author bio of you live on the site so that we can start to create a community of writers and fans rather than a series of ad-hoc freelancers.

I am looking to keep up the same standard so some graphic/post formatting skills will be required. This is more than just SEO copywriting, I am looking for superb feature length blog posts and I am prepared to pay a fair rate in order to achieve this.
