Stories and Editorials
This year's spring cleaning event is almost upon us! Except this year, there is a twist. We will be hosting the very first official 19cord Draft Swap! How does it work? I'm glad you asked.
Alice submits a draft. The drafts are scrambled around between participants, and Alice winds up with Bob's draft, which she now has a few weeks to complete and change however she sees fit. Posting is optional, so don't feel pressured to submit if you don't want to, but this is a great opportunity to make new friends and write outside of your comfort zone!
Draft Swap starts March 10th (hub goes up on the same day) and lasts until April 10th.
