Ok, so I guess you all are wondering what in the world Writer Of The Week (WOTW) is. Let's have a quote from my good friend and founder of WOTW- Lucre, or as you know her, @Lucrezia
Writer of the Week is different from both featured member and the Spotlight. While featured members are active all over the site (most particularly with reviewing and forum stalking browsing), and the Spotlight shows off the works with the most Likes, Writer of the Week’s goal is to give an unbiased look at the talented authors that make YWS what it is. Writer of the Week—or “WOTW” for short—aims to give the more underrated, less appreciated novelists, or screenwriters, or essay authors a bit of glory, and show YWSers why they should review things outside their comfort zones. Because poetry and shorts aren’t the only types of literature YWS has to offer!
Another thing that separates WOTW from the Spotlight is the focus it puts on the writers behind the literary works you love. The people that make YWS what it is, and who have given us countless great pieces to read and review.
The first-ever WOTW was very special, because it gave all of YWS a chance to vote for the person they thought best deserved this special acknowledgement. They could nominate their favorite writers by visiting this forum here , so authors of all different genres, from poets to novelists, got the chance to earn the title. After a few days of voting, the first-ever WOTW was crowned: The amazing @TriSARAHtops!
This was the first and last week, at least for the time being, that the members of YWS got to all vote for who they wanted as WOTW. From now on, writers will be selected by a small but dedicated panel of judges, who work tirelessly to find and acknowledge the amazing authors on this site. Because of this, the next WOTW could literally be anyone—from a well-known poet to an underrated, exceptionally talented novelist. All in the hope of not only making these amazing writers feel honored for their accomplishments, but also that the extra recognition will stir up interest in their portfolios and hopefully get them more reviews! (Because, seriously, who doesn’t love reviews?!)
Writer of the Week will be divided in sections—there will be a category for novelists, short writers, poets, and finally, screenwriters/essay writers and those that have written anything in the “other” genre. This way, everyone—no matter what you write—will get a chance to be recognized for their amazing pieces.
Let's give it up for Lucrezia! Ok, so you have all this information now. What do you do on here? Well, you congratulate the winner! Here is a look at the winner's profile- profile/ComicalCrafty/portfolio
