This is a "Game of Thrones" Open in new Window. review!



Hello, Lilli 🧿 ☕!

*Checkb*Overall Impression:
An ongoing poetry challenge that provides time to breathe between prompts was definitely needed here on WdC. While several other resources, like The Poet's Place, offer a weekly prompt, it's not quite the same as the freedom of this activity and its subsequent rewards.

*Checkb*Title and Description:
Both are excellent. They are clear and concise, laying out everything a potential participant would want to know.

*Checkb*Content and Flow:
Your landing page flows well. While there is a lot of text, it is on the page in a user-friendly manner, providing plenty of white space for the eye to rest. Your use of colour helps to keep the key concepts grouped and separated from the set of ideas, reducing confusion and making everything easier to find and understand. If I were to nitpick, I'd say it probably doesn't need so much bold font. But keep in mind, that's if I'm being very picky, which I'm not.

I appreciate that this is an activity instead of a contest. Contests intimidate some writers, and having a place to participate without the pressure to "perform" in order to achieve a reward is important. The ability of writers to essentially "pick their prize" is novel, and the ability to pay for it over time allows writers with fewer gift points the opportunity to earn more significant rewards, which I'm sure they appreciate. Offering additional rewards (monthly and the activity's merit badge) is very generous.

Overall, it's a well-planned, well-run, and well-placed activity.

*Checkb*Grammar and Mechanics:
I found no problems on either front.

*Checkb*Final Thoughts:
Thank you for filling this much-needed niche for the community!

Thank you for sharing your work with us!
