Three just feels good
We may be about to mix things up with spring a few short weeks away, but we’re back again this week, offering up three votes on the yeah write grid. We’ve got an eclectic round up here–a friendly rodeo of writers who are saddled up and ready for the challenge.
Do your three picks have a story to tell? Do they have clear, central conflicts? Is the writing concise, compelling, and free of grammatical and structural errors? Think of each vote as an endorsement of a well-written piece, not as a favor to a fellow writer who wants an extra heart in her corner.
Challenge grid voting starts here
The challenge grid crowd favorite and top row will be determined by popular vote.
Everybody gets THREE votes
Click on each thumbnail to read the posts before voting. Click on the voting icon to vote for a post after reading. Do not vote for your own post, please.
Read the posts before voting
We are responsible voters here at yeah write. Read, evaluate, vote on merit. We’re still writing the yeah write way, and we want the votes to reflect it.
Voting is open until Thursday, 10:00 p.m. EST
- If it’s after 10:00 p.m. EST [-5 GMT] on Thursday when you’re trying to vote, voting is closed. There will be no more voting icons on the thumbnail and voting will not work.
- Once you’ve voted for your favorite posts, you’re done voting. The voting icons will disappear.
- Voting for your own post should be disabled. If it’s not, please don’t vote for your own post.
- Once you’ve voted for the best posts on the grid, you are then free to campaign for votes for your favorite entries.
- If you’d like to see the current vote tallies after you’ve voted, refresh the page.
- If you ask your people to vote for your entry, please let them know they have two votes, and they should vote for yours only if it’s one of the best on the grid. Campaigning for your own targeted votes is highly discouraged.
- Yeah write and the Inlinkz app allow only one set of votes per IP address. When campaigning for votes for your favorites, please ask outside voters to read this section before voting. It will lessen their confusion and curb their clicking enthusiasm.
Winner’s post published Friday by noon EST
Once the voting ends, the challenge grid will sort itself from highest number of votes to the fewest. Ties are broken by number of page views. Until the winner’s post is published, none of the sorting will be official, but you can still get a good idea of where everyone ended up until the votes are validated.
New vote proctor in town
Yeah write editor Stacie has taken over the vote monitoring from Erica M. Stacie places justice before mercy, so think twice before voting for yourself or attempting to vote more than once by using another IP address. It’s one voting round per IP address, one voting round per person. Thank you!
Yeah write #151 voting is open…

These were really good!
Happy to be on grid second time. 🙂 I think many bloggers feel difficulty using “disqus” commenting system, is it right?
Disqus is very difficult to use, especially on mobile devices. I stopped by to comment on your post and Disqus took a very long time to load. But I did enjoy your essay!
Hey, thanks for the shout-out. What a wonderful site!!
We saw you commenting on some of our member sites, and thought you’d like to join in the festivities. Good luck in the challenge, and we hope to see you next week!
