CROSS-TRAINING: FINAL CALL -- CLOSES FRIDAY (02.01.13)
FINAL CALL. Enrollment closes tomorrow, Friday (2/1).
A couple reminders regarding the "intent" of this cause...
MISSION RE-STATEMENT:- this is about "cross-training" - be prepared to learn & teach - drop & feed. Rest assured, this process will help me as a writer, teacher, AND student as much as anyone (if not more so).
- Next steps: the final roll call, official next steps, ideas, etc. will come out this weekend.
- Future Enrollment: we are only limiting the list for the time-being to establish a good rapport and rhythm within the initial group; but as skills and the process evolves, we can create a leverage model to ensure there is the right support structure in place and that this does not become "a list of names and nothing of more value than that".
CHAOS OUT OF ORDER:
all current participants who are ready to get rolling, consider doing the following in advance if so inclined:- Be ready to drop us your drops - most recent topical AND battle (and/or flex) - as long as you have done both.
- Be ready to drop your backdrop - skill/evolution wise, a couple bullets on "where you were", "where you are now" (biggest strength AND opportunity)
- What makes the best better than the rest? what makes a good writer in your opinion
- Raising the bar for the ones we drop what is the SINGLE most important area you'd like to improve as a writer (creativity, wording, wordplay, imagery, wording without sacrificing flow/flowing without sacrificing wording, etc.......
- What you plan to PUT IN and hope to be the OUT PUT? how do you think you will help be a solid supporter of this cause --- and what is the NUMBER ONE thing you hope to get out of this process?
In this, just as in life, you will get out of this what you put in. I WILL BE DOING THE ABOVE FOR MYSELF AS WELL. It is not busy work, it is a "benchmark" AND an initial "roadmap" for all of us as writers. If you are not willing to do the above, please do not hesitate to sign out - because I am going to put the time and effort into this to make sure we can measure our collective and individual growth throughout this process.
CURRENT ROLL CALL:
01- Malachi
02- Sharp Nine
03- Strikta
04- Rayge
05- Witty
06- Objective
07- c.d.m.
08- King Keith
09- Utmost
10- Boredom
11- Mike Wrecka
12- Immaculate
Looking forward to our inevitable successes.
