Please only read it if you have time and not many essays to read. I really need to know if it’s good enough.
Please only PM it to me if you have spent adequate time writing and editing it. Also, I really enjoy proofreading essays with subjects interesting enough to be good.
Please send your essay only to adults with proven posting histories. I’m not volunteering at this point, but I’ll use myself as an example. If you click on my name, and then go to “threads” you’ll see evidence of a spouse, 3 kids, and a career. Any of those would probably be enough to indicate that I’m not a 17 year old kid looking to steal your essay. Look at the number of “likes” and “Helpfuls”-- that should further reinforce the credentials of a potential reader.
To build on bjkmom’s point, you will want to look at the ratio of posts to Likes and Helpfuls. Some post 10,000s of times but are endorsed with only half that number of Helpfuls and Likes.
–Finding experts whose approval ratings outnumber their posts is useful information if you value quality over quantity.
Excellent point.
Oh, and remember that lots of those moms and dads are now pretty busy with Holiday prep/ participation.
December can be a busy month for adults!
Thank you so much @bjkmom and @IvyGrad09
