Writing course / Curso de escritura #wewrite - L2
Dear free writer,
We present you Lesson 2 of our writing course.
In Lesson 1 we practised how to describe in detail what we see in a picture (for example I see: a sun, clouds, orange sky, 13 birds flying, water, land), and we described the feelings a picture evokes if we study it (a list of feeling you find in Lesson 1). Next, we focussed on writing a story or poem with 100 words as pic1000 and the Art & Writing contest hosted by @ solperez.
This week we will focus on commenting which is an important part of social media.
Start with Task 1!

Hola @wakeupkitty e @inspiracion
Les presento una opinión en cuanto la instrucción que prela hacer las tareas 2 y 3 sin haber cumplido las anteriores, para esta segunda semana.
Desde su posición de moderadores y evaluadores de cada steemians, los entiendo en cuanto a su objetivo. Y la cantidad de participantes (tareas) que logró su propuesta.
Sin embargo, desde la posición de usuario encuentro desventajas en su postura de poner fechas límites y prelaciones a las tareas. En mi opinión su sistema acarrea más bien perdida de participantes antes que ganarlos en número.
Es bueno recordar lo referido a las limitaciones de acceso a la web (tanto por el servicio de internet como por cortes de electricidad en varios países, Venezuela es uno) eso limita, aunque nos planifiquemos cumplir con Steemit en ocasiones.
Otra es que, al ser una fase de prueba, y al irse corriendo más la voz de este desafió, muchos steemians deberían tener el derecho y la oportunidad de participar.
El numeró de tareas me parece bien, además están presentando instrucciones más claras y directas. Como sugerencia a considerar, podría implementarse un sistema de recuperación de semanas y tareas perdidas por no llegar a tiempo, aceptando que las puntuaciones van a ser menor, pero así podrían incorporarse talentos que aún no lo han hecho.
Gracias por su atención.
Hi @joslud
If you would check every comment left behind concerning the tasks of Lesson 1 you will see that entries of Task 1 were posted long after the deadline and these posts did receive a report and I did tell these participants to post Task 2 + Task 3 as well.
Like you said Venezuela is not the only country dealing with wifi issues so do I and others, moderators and curators included and we all should stick to deadlines if it comes to the reports.
Of course we can work with a team of 20 reading all entries but you know just like me that this will affect the way the content is measured. If in 2 years someone likes to join these lessons and I am still alive I will gladly give them a reply on the tasks they fulfilled.
For your information: I posted Lesson 2 early on my Sunday morning! At that time it was still Saturday with you. This means there are 4 days to visit 3 communities to leave 4 comments. If this is not possible because of a blackout of 1 week or longer my hands are tight.
I like to add that we all know that if we learn consistency is important and not doing all tasks within 2 hours on Saturday night.
I understand your concern and if this means fewer people join, there is not much I can do to change about it.
By the way I noticed many join more than one Teaching Team. It should be considered that taking part at #wewrite is not the same as writing one entry for a Sec contest with a template.
To my opinion there is room enough to join and no one will say an entry is not valid unkess it is plagiarism or AI-generated text.
Thank you for sharing your concerns.
♥️🍀
TEAM 4
Congratulations! Your Comment has been upvoted through steemcurator06. We support good comments anywhere..Será interesante poder leer los comentarios de nuestros nuevos usuarios como el amigo @abnerpantoja que está comenzando en ésta plataforma. Tiene una gran oportunidad.
Y tendré el privilegio de trabajar al lado de un usuario experimentado, quien recientemente, recargó energías en el Mee Up de occidente de Venezuela. El amigo @Yancar.
Ciertamente "LEER TE HACE BIEN"
Buenos días hermosa amiga lunasilver, gracias por tan lindas palabras, compartamos esta experiencia de apoyar y comentar las interacciones.
Acabo de activarme, espero ver si puedo participar en tu curso de esta semana.
Te deseo un feliz domingo, bendiciones.
Sería un gran honor, porque tengo dos estudiantes, caballeros pero son del otro lado del mundo. Hispanos 0. Jejejeje
Serás bienvenido 👍😻
Estaba revisando las tareas de la semana dos. Noto que aparecen publicaciones por comentar en artículos de otros idiomas.
Eso es hacer comunidad, es decir, tiene la oportunidad de intercambiar ideas con personas de otras latitudes. Cuando escribimos lo que más nos gusta es que nos lean. En Steemit tenemos esa oportunidad. Primero nos relacionamos con otros. Sobre todo en nuestras preferencias y fortalezas. Hacemos tribu. Luego, vendrán las oportunidades y más luego las recompensas. Claro, es sólo una sugerencia, no es la fórmula exacta. Pero algo que aprendí y lo he visto cumplirse es: en 6 meses haciendo trabajo continuo leer, comentar, votar + power up usted verá los frutos.
El idioma lo resuelve Google. Jejejeje
Entiendo. Pues, a aplicar lo que comenta usted.
Or deepl.com
😎
Steemit is a worldwide platform and it is good to visit different communities to broaden the personal horizon. There are many communities with a topic and just like hashtags this is a huge benefit.
♥️🍀
Os deseo a ti y a @yancar mucha diversión. Dejad también vuestros comentarios y haced que los nuevos se sientan bienvenidos y no olvidéis dejar un comentario para los "saludadores" 😁.
Nuevos retos. Espero tener la oportunidad de leer muchas participaciones.
Gracias por darme la oportunidad de resaltar este tipo de contenidos y de comentarios que agregan valor al ecosistema.
Saludos y bendiciones para todos.
Generally the closing date for each week's assignments is the Sunday evening...
Are you keen to change it for your course?
We discussed it. By now we have 139 entries registered and there are more. We can change the deadline to Saturday or we can not be in time with the report on Monday.
By now the team is expanded with 5 more people and they all get paid except me.
Although a sheet is used to find the best participants all the entries they wrote should be read by one single person (in this case two will ) to compare them against another.
For now I will set the deadline of Task 3 on Saturday till I received your deciscion.
I think the problem is that they are generating 3 tasks in different publications, that is, they are tripling the normal participation.
Sorry for the intrusion, but it seems better to me that the 3 tasks are developed in a single publication, this way they can be covered by 2 or 3 people.
One task is not enough to try out something new. If there would have been only the first the results would have been terrible and many wouldn't have learned anything.
After the second task, the results changed and a great improvement was shown and with task 3 a contest not many join it increased again.
Would one task have made it easier for us? I doubt it since Saturday people still joined in and started with task 1.
Why different communities?
Because there are plenty and discovering some other communities than we are used to write, to discover something new seeing what is posted there) will broaden the horizon of a writer, and willhopefully also improve engagement.
we-write it's not about dropping a post 2 minutes before the deadline but about achieving something together and the chance to improve, ask, try and edit.
Ps. @inspiracion and I did all entries together but the fact remains that every 150+ entry deserves to be read, qyestions should be answered, a task might need more explanation and this takes time too. It's about we not I and knowing that for a change you will be read.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts it's highly appreciated.
.
Agreed.
You can share the reward with me (25% and 25%) or whatever... But as I told you before, it seems that the distribution is unequal😕.
I think we have a lot to go over at least in this week 1 to designate the winners...
It would be nice if we had time to do this activity, I agree that it is until Saturday, week 2.
Thank you dear for sharing. You worked very hard and offered a lot. Your offer is appreciated.🤗♥️🍀
That will be fine if you want to go for the earlier closing date.
See also the comment / suggestion from @adeljose.
Thank you, with lesson 3 I will sew if there is another solution.
Give me a little more information, do 4x comments in the community have to be on different posts?
Yes. You pick 4 posts and leave a comment. You comment in 3 different communities. Do not forget to mention the right moderators!
A beautiful mission, I love writing...
I think this is are great tasks to achieve, commenting can be an art and we appreciate receiving genuine comments, so we all should try making them. And since this is social media, it's at least opportune to do this practice, not to mention the benefits on the blockchain.
Blessings
I agree with you commenting is part of social media and we all can do it. Imagine if we all would write 3 comments oer day...
It's still very few, but absolutely achievable, and good for all of us, motivate the one who receives it and we let ourserlves be known
Grateful to be a student in this course. Learning so very very much...
That somehow sounds strange because you have talent. Can it be you are not aware of it? I love the way you write and hope you have a great time and find more people to connect with. Afterall this is a hobby and it's good to share it with like-minded.
A big hug for you.
It is becoming more clear to me that I can make up for what I lack in social skills, which are 0, by writing and interacting with other writers.
You still have social skills even if different from others and it shows in what you write.
Just lile you I find it easier to write. If you leave or switch off the phone/computer the talk is over plus if you write you can read - think - answer later. Try to do that if you meet someone or are forced to have a chat.
Yes. That works for me. The ringer in the phone is off. Leave a message. I only do call back. Text is preferable. For me writing is something like... using a pencil with an eraser. Everything can get edited until I am happy I have expressed what I wanted to. Signing off is also a good way to get out of an undesirable situation. Can be done nicely. "I have to go. There's someone at the door. Catch you later." (Much much later) Who needs video games when real life is like playing dodge 'ems... while looking for buried treasure... Stay safe..and focused.
You do call back? I'm not, no way. My youngest called me early this morning still sleepy. She had a message from the doctor's office she didn't pick up her phone as they called. She was asked to call the doctor back who called anomynous and as she called the office they sent her away met the message she can't make an appointment but has to call her..
This all is way too exhausting for me. Imagine I have to hear that nonsense after I waited for 15 minutes hearing music I don't like because they put me on hold. Why not say what you want or give a date she can show up. Agendas still exist.
I have to go never worked for me, some talk, talk, talk and if you leave they follow.
Much much later sounds good. A few years ago I told an acquaintance the truth. It was easier. So I said: You take all my energy and drain me, sorry I can't meet you any longer. He was quiet and next said: I am sorry to hear that, but I respect your choice. Now I think about it it's the only person who did not stalk me for the next 14+ years.
I agree life is a game and we shouldn't forget to take some energy drink or take a break in time.
Hi dear friend @wakeupkitty and @inspiracion our posts are not review yet is there any mustake in tag or something else?
we are still checking.. it's helpful if you leave the link if you notice it. I have a few hundred notifications.
Saludos en este inicio de la segunda semana.
Esta vez encuentro mayor claridad en las instrucciones, toca fuerte, pero es posible.
Me alegra que esta vez presenten las etiquetas en un solo idioma, la semana pasada fui penalizado al usar etiquetas en español, que aparecían reseñadas en las instrucciones de la tarea 3. Pero todo viene como un aprendizaje
Éxito y muchos aprendizajes para todos.
Pienso lo mismo, hubieron algunos detalles pero se solventaron en esta tarea y si, será duro pero no imposible...
