Copy Clinic is a proposed format for Steemit Stories
Users can adopt this format if they've written some copy that they'd like critical feedback on. It's for people writing short passages to persuade their audience about something (think of marketing, promotion, propaganda) rather than for technical, journalistic, academic or creative writers.
I put this together because I'll be asking for feedback on scripts for my animations now and then. Perhaps others would like to use the format too. Here's the first script I'm hoping for help with.
The Suggested Format
Name your new Steemit Story Copy Clinic - [Your title here]
Swap the placeholder for the title - or some kind of summary - of the piece of copy you'll be soliciting feedback on.

# Context
[Your context information]
---
[Your copy]
Swap the [Your context information] placeholder for information about your copy that will help people to give relevant feedback.
- Mention the ultimate destination of the copy. It it an 'about us' text for a company website? A video script? An advert in a newspaper? etc.
- Who is the target audience, what kind of demographic do you hope to speak to with the text?
- Do you hope to get particular kinds of feedback or suggestions from responders? Mention that too.
- Add anything else you'd like to say to your readers/responders here too.
Beneath the horizontal line, Swap the [Your copy] placeholder for the copy you'd like feedback on. Include a title if applicable.
Tag your Story copyclinic in addition to whatever other tags you'd like.
