Let your reader submit a guest post – TDO Mini Forms WordPress Plugin
TDO Mini Forms allows you to add highly customisable forms to your WordPress blog that allows your readers (including non-registered) to submit guest posts.
For admininstrator
The posts are kept in “draft” until an admin can publish them (also configurable). The plugin provides an extensive moderation view so administrators and editors can see posts awaiting approval and publish or delete them. Administrators can also ban specific users and IPs from using the form. Administrators can also “Trust” specific users. This means that when they use the form, their posts are automatically published.
For user
Registered users have access to a “Your Submissions” page which lists their current submissions awaiting approval and links to their approved submissions.
Here are some screenshots (click to enlarge):
