ALT our top tips; make sure the story idea is one that works for journo resources. take a look at our editorial content and what past fellows have written. we really want to hear from people from marginalised backgrounds — but please don't feel bound to writing about your identity. we want the story you idea you feel most passionate about. try to use the full space available to you in answers that have a set word count. Using most of the word count allows us to get to know you. be honest in your answers, while we do want to know what you've achieved, we also want to hear about how this experience could help you. don't panic about your written experience. A google doc of your writing is fine.
