About

This is going to be a super fun creative writing contest! Everyone will be able to vote on their favorite prompt that you will be writing with. This is mostly just for fun but the main judging criteria will be story, (does the story match the prompt and is it engaging) grammar and sentence structure, (not to sound like a SAT section, but the grammar needs to be accurate) and finally, originality (you can't use chatGTP for this, I hate that that is something I need to add, but you should add your own creative voice in your writing.
The time allowed to complete your writing will be three months, so you should have plenty of time to finish and refine your writing.
The winner of the contest will get a shoutout in the R&W Subworld and have their story posted in our shoutout! Second and third place winners will also get shoutouts!
The most important rule is to just have fun! This isn't a professional contest so don't stress out about making your writing "perfect". There are no perfect papers, remember that.
We will have all rules and criteria finalized by the kickoff to the contest.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

You can join anytime you want, just make sure to DM me or one of the co-hosts you paper before the deadline if you want us to consider it for grading.

About the Tutors

I'm a homeschooled junior that loves baking, reading, and writing! I am super excited to be able to help fellow students with all kinds of difficult subjects, and just have some fun. I am currently studying German, AP Calculus, AP Biology, and AP Psychology and I hope to learn so much more as I continue to meet new people here!

I'm an 8th grader that's passionate about biology. I'm studying anatomy, the piano, Spanish, AP history, AP biology, and pretty much anything that peaks my interest. I like to play video games and sing along to songs (Regardless if I know the words or not). If given the chance I will pet every animal I come across. Go check out some of Jason W's classes, he is extremely nice and fun. He's a great person and a great tutor, and I'm beyond excited host a session with him!! 😊🤩😁
