<p>Hey folks! We were so thrilled with your response to Writing Day last year that we are launching
a <a class="reference external" href="https://forms.gle/uTkWHV3fesyNQEyk9">Call for Projects submission form</a>!</p>
<p>For projects submitted by Friday, September 6, 2024, we’ll highlight your project on our social media, as we learned last year that projects that submit their information before the conference have higher attendance. In fact, perusing project details encourages documentarians to join us earlier, stay longer, and check out multiple projects.</p>
<p>Our attendees are curious and want to know about you, your project, and your community - so
let’s give the people what they want!</p>
<p>You are of course welcome to submit and announce your project at Writing Day. This is a time-honored
tradition and we appreciate all of our projects.</p>

<h2>Call for Projects</h2>
<p>Bringing your project to Writing Day is a wonderful way to introduce your mission and community to
Write the Docs attendees.</p>
<p>The Write the Docs conference has many enthusiastic attendees. These attendees, documentarians, want
to learn new technologies, sharpen their skills, and add to their portfolios. The world of open
source has a seemingly endless number of wonderful open source projects. Documentarians want to write
the docs, e.g., your open source project docs.</p>
<p>We are looking for community/OSS projects for our virtual Writing Day at the Atlantic conference on
September 22.</p>
<p>The <a class="reference external" href="https://forms.gle/uTkWHV3fesyNQEyk9">Call for Proposals submission form</a> is open until <em>11:59 PM, September 6, 2024 UTC</em>.</p>

<h3>Writing Day Resources</h3>
<p>You don’t have to be a developer advocate, community manager, or project lead - though you’re all
welcome. Anyone with enthusiasm for their project and community is welcome to bring it to Writing Day!</p>
<p>If you’re excited about Writing Day and want to lead a project but not sure where to begin, we have <a class="reference external" href="https://www.writethedocs.org/conf/atlantic/2024/writing-day/#lead-a-project">tips and tricks for project leaders</a> to help maximize your experience.</p>
<p>If you need additional information to advocate for Writing Day in your community, or help persuading
your corporate benefactors on the benefits of attending Writing Day, see the <a class="reference external" href="https://www.writethedocs.org/conf/atlantic/2024/convince-day-manager/#convince-your-community">Convince Your Community</a> resource.</p>
