The Violet Verse community would not be what it is without the SENSATIONAL members. Especially our contributors. This guide is where users can learn to become a contributor. Feel the violet vibes and immerse yourself in the contributor workflow to achieve tokens, knowledge, and connection!

Start Here.

1. Join the VV Discord

2. Navigate to the #Contributors Channel. Create a thread and include Pitch Title and 2-3 sentences explaining the TL:DR. Include any resources or people to interview. It's not mandatory, but including your social handles and a portfolio/links to content samples helps our community get to know you and your work.

3. Open the Editorial Calendar and browse potential content pieces in the "Content Ideas" tab

Workflow for Returning contributors:

Choose a piece you want to work on.

  • Copy and paste 'potential title' into the "Editorial Calendar" tab

  • The VV team will insert missing information

Research chosen topic

  • Remember to verify sources
  • Add external links
  • Beware of FUD
  • Choose a keyword

Write draft 1

  • Go for it! Write down the first version of your article
  • Create Google Doc in the Shared Drive, share permissions
  • Link Google doc to the content title in the Editorial Calendar tab
  • Update status column
  • Do your best

Submit for editing

  • Send your first draft to XX for revisions
  • Each piece will receive a maximum of 3 revisions
  • Accept or decline suggested edits
  • Update status column

5. Revise/create second draft (If you got the "okay-go" from the team, skip to the next step)

6. Pitch a featured image for your piece

  • 763x 340 px - Horizontal
  • 440 x 500 px - Square
  • Upload to Shared Drive designated folder

7. Notify VV Team of content final submission
