There you will find a document called "Sample op-ed outline (PDF)" which should have exactly what you're looking for. Also, if you don't have time to submit something for this competition, we will be announcing a brand new competition on March 30th!<br /><br />http://writetheworld.com/groups/1/assignments/130Davinahttp://www.writetheworld.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-35508295715326261262015-03-14T18:59:35.672-05:002015-03-14T18:59:35.672-05:00This looks fun!

(Wish I could have known sooner, though, so I could have turned it in for the proofread date) I'm thinking about trying it, because my view probably goes against most's. (#hateonselfies) I'm curious at how formal the piece is. First POV?

Or, a few talented people (who could point their bulky camera with accuracy at arms length) took their own portrait.
