Looking for fiction and poetry voting over at the speakeasy?

Click here for this week’s speakeasy voting. There are three yeah write virgins at the speakeasy. Please stop by to read their flash fiction entries and leave a welcoming comment. Then you can vote by clicking three yellow stars.

Voting on the challenge grid is by vote-o-rama tracker 

The editors are now scoring their yeah write #87 vote-o-rama spreadsheets and you are welcome to vote by spreadsheet as well.

[check_list]

  • Click here to download a copy
  • Fill it out completely
  • If you’re competing on the grid, score your own entry. Be honest. This is for posterity
  • If there are any missing fields, we won’t be able to use it
  • Email Erica M your spreadsheet by 8 p.m. US eastern time. Any spreadsheets sent after that can’t be tabulated or included in final scores

Don’t be intimidated by the vote-o-rama tracker. Lemme show you how to use it:

enter the blogs on the grid

Type in the name of each blog on the grid if it’s not filled in by the time you download your copy. Don’t go by the number assigned on the grid. Once the grid closes to submissions, the thumbnails will sort themselves by number of page views and all the original numbers will change.

The scoring criteria are on page 2. Click the tab at the bottom of the worksheet.

Read the helpful questions then score each entry based on your answers. Some are objective (such as spelling errors) and others are subjective (evidence of passion) and I’m the first to agree the rubric system of evaluating entries feels a little No Child Left Behind, but this should help develop our critical reading skills. You’ve got to know the rules to break the rules. Some bloggers (not here at yeah write!) think there are no rules. This rubric keeps everyone on the learning track.

fill in notes on each entry

Fill out the notes on each and every entry. Doesn’t have to be a dissertation, but we do need to know what you liked, what you didn’t like, what worked, what didn’t. No notes, no vote, even on your own if you’re on the grid.

All spreadsheets, including editors, will be in by 8 p.m. today with the winners’ post published at midnight.

Have fun!
