The following is the application for National Storyteller (NST) of TGN. From January 1 through January 7th, the EXO will take applications for the NST and Archivist positions. By January 10th, the EXO will propose to the Board his/her selection for both positions from received applicants, which does not need seconded. The Board will then have one week to discuss the selections before a vote to ratify the choices occurs. The NST, Archivist and EXO must all be from different chronicles at the time of appointment. If the Board does not approve a candidate, the EXO will repeat the process, selecting a second candidate from the applications already received. If no agreeable selection exists, the EXO may reopen application acceptance for no longer than one week.
This application is also available here as an rtf and as a pdf, and also on the National TGN OOC Yahoogroups listserve, in the files section.
