Hello writers of YWS!
So some of you may recognize me. I used to be really active on the site once upon a time ago before university ate my soul. But I’ve been studying English in this time and I’m currently working on a project for my English for Informatics final. Currently, I’m looking for people to volunteer a couple minutes of their time to fill out a quick survey and link me to any works you would be willing to let me use.
Essentially, the point of the project is to look at creative material being written by today’s youth, preferably something written in the last year and see what topics most clearly stand out as well as looking for a few specific things that I would mention but I don’t want to throw a cog of bias into the informatic-machine. You can submit as many links you like and 50 points to everyone who helps me out!
So if you’re willing to help this old member out, reply here or PM me with the below:
Code: Select all
[b]Username:[/b]
[b]Age:[/b]
[b]Country:[/b]
[b]Link(s):[/b]
Never forget who you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.

Sorry if you wanted actual links, but I don't want to interfere with precious data. o.o
However, the most recent thing I've written is Wool of the Prince-- Chapter 4

To this, the Wolf answered, Lo!

I'm not exactly sure if this last one will help you or not, seeing as what it'a about is a little more subtle then most would expect. But here it is anyway...

If you're still looking, you might want to try submitting an advertisement to shameless plugs (from Squills) to help draw in a larger data set.

Good luck with your project! It sounds really cool.

I have a bunch more as well on my blog outside YWS, but I'd rather not post the links here as it has my full name, etc. Can I PM you the links instead?
