Challenge
$50 prize. What does it mean to be a good writer? Does good writing even matter, or have Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat, TikTok etc. turned us into mindless, unsophisticated zombies who no longer care for grammar, punctuation, vocabulary, or creativity?
$50 to the author of whichever post I find most insightful.
Social Media is the worst.
Social media vampires, er..., influencers, aren't concerned with articulation. Appropriate grammar or etiquette on their platforms would be considered a faux pas. Misspellings and disorganized sentence structures are merely seen as creatively structured riffs that hypnotize the crowd they seek to surround themselves with. And while it may be subconsciousness, their primal lizard brain knows their fame dies like a burning match.
But if you're trying to contend for these types of readers, writing, and this audience, isn't for you.
