Adding Contributors to Text Widget

    I currently have a blog with a long list of authors, and would like to start adding “guest bloggers” who I’ll probably have sign up as contributors. I’d like to have them listed in a separate section to distinguish them from regular authors, and it seems the best way to do this (after searching the forums) would be to put them in a text widget. However, I don’t understand how to do this! Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I’d love for the name to appear in the widget, with a link to the contributors’ posts. Thanks in advance!

    Something like this should do the trick:

    <h2>Contributors</h2>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://link-to-archives.com">Contributor Name</a></li>
<li><a href="http://link-to-archives.com">Next Contributor Name</a></li>
</ul>

    That’s incredibly helpful, thank you! One more question: I’m using the theme “Contempt” and am using the authors widget, so currently any contributors just show up in the authors list. Is there a way to remove the contributors from the authors widget, so they’ll show up only in the text widget I’ve created (with your help!)?? Thanks!
