⋆｡˚ ☁︎ ˚｡⋆｡˚☽˚｡⋆ hey there, galaxswc ;) welcome to the interest project for the writing comp panel! the writing comp panel is a group of 5-7 people who assist with judging in the writing competition. they are given a shortlist of the top 20-25 entries that the judges decide on, and then read the entries independently and write up a mock ranking of where they think the entries should place. the judges then convert all the panelists rankings into a scoring system, which then help determine the final placings! a couple things to note about paneling: the shortlist is usually released around mid-december, and from there panelists will have around a week to submit their mock rankings! additionally, panelists cannot enter the main writing competition - however, they can enter the fanfiction category. if this is a role you’d be interested in undertaking, please answer the following questions in the comments below: ⋆｡˚ ☁︎ ˚｡⋆｡˚☽˚｡⋆ 1. how long have you been participating in swc? 2. what sessions have you entered the writing competition? 3. if you’ve placed in the writing comp before, which sessions, and what award did you receive? 4. what potential schedule conflicts may you have in december? 5. please provide a writing excerpt AND a writing critique* you’ve written! 6. what do you consider your personal strongest and weakest qualities in writing, and what qualities do you find aspirational in another person's work? 7. any other information you’d like us to consider? *if you don’t have a writing critique posted on scratch — feel free to write one up for one of these pieces! https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/722384/?page=1#post-7625982 answers shouldn't need to be more than 200 words at the very maximum, so don't worry about length <3 just make sure the questions are fully answered! if you have any queries, feel free to ask in the comments or ask on my profile <3 ⋆｡˚ ☁︎ ˚｡⋆｡˚☽˚｡⋆ thumbnail ☽ me on canva, with some tyrannical assistance music ☽ mastermind by taylor swift current hosts ☽ @-redredrobin-, @stariqe, @luna-lovegood-lol, , , the past and present contributors to swc - thank you for all you've done <33
