Partnering Up Is Back!
I told you it would be that time again!
For all of you that enjoy coming together with another freewriter to have some fun, this contest is for you!
What is a We-Write?
A We-Write is a fun way to write a story with a partner using the daily prompt given by @mariannewest.
The idea is to find a partner either by your own contacts or through the comment section, then come together to write a complete story.
How Do We Play?
Helpful tip: Plan how post payouts will be shared with your partner beforehand to avoid any misunderstandings.😁
Option 1
- Pick a partner and open up a shared Google doc.
- Decide who will begin writing.
- Prepare a timer for each writer. Alternate writing for 1 minute each.
- Use the word “Go” to let the other know that it was their turn.
- Use the prompt provided.
- Put the word/phrase at the top of the page.
- The first freewriter sets a timer for 1 minute and begins writing.
- When the minute is up, type the word “GO” to let the next writer know to begin.
- Carry on, alternating turns, until 10 minutes have passed (each has written for 5 minutes).
- Combine the sentences (cleaning up the formatting and removing the “Go’s” if you wish).
- Place the “cleaned up” version of the story below the exercise.
- Submit the link and then enjoy reading that day’s freewrites!
Option 2
- Pick a partner and open up a shared Google doc.
- Decide who will begin writing.
- Set a timer for 10 minutes.
- First freewriter writes one sentence.
- Then, the other freewriter writes one sentence.
- Switch back and forth until the 10 minutes are over.
Option 3
- This option is especially good if you can't find a time which suits both writers
- Each freewriter writes a 5 minute freewite.
- Exchange the freewites (This can be done in comments, through Discord, Steemit Chat, or email)
- Write 5 more minutes on the partners freewrite and finish the story.
- You can both publish the freewrites and if you want, add a bit on how that kind of writing felt to you. Was it fun? Difficult? Want to do it again?
Rewards!
We'll be giving away a total of 4 SBI shares total! Each pair will be entered in together, and then each winner will be given two shares! So if I entered and won with my partner, we would each recieve two shares! Plus a 100% upvote from the Freewrite House!
But that's not all!
@curie has been generous enough sponsor us! They are offering up 2 Steem! So, the whichever partnership wins, both winners will recieve 1 Steem each.
We are using the prompt from today which is…
Eagle Scout
Deadline is August 1, Midnight Pacific Time.
Like always, I can't wait to read your stories!
Love,

Do you mean the final story? Like which person posts the finished story?

Yes, that. But also, is the story posted as a comment here? Or where?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Yes, you can post the finished link here. You and your partner can both post the finished story, or just one or the other.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

You can post it as your own post and then leave a link in the comments - or, if you like to keep your feed a certain way, i.e. only animal pictures or something like that, and your story doesn't fit there, you can post it in the comments.
Some people do both.

I read we can work with multiple people so I can do one. I'll set up the document and post a link here, though maybe you can write the beginning? I just wrote one so I'd like to try an ending.
HEre the doc all set up. just write and let me know when you're done @scribblingramma - or if you've found another partner already.
