qiskit-advocate
Find and write recurring blog posts about Qiskitter work
Description
As advocates, you know more about the Qiskit community than just about anyone. I'm always looking for cool projects that would be interesting to the broader QIskit community, translated into language that even the newest Qiskitter can understand. (See this blog post for example) Essentially, I want to teach one of you how to be a science writer.
Mentor/s
Ryan Mandelbaum (@ryanfmandelbaum), Senior Technical Writer, main contributor to Qiskit Medium.
Type of participant
The ideal participant is passionate not just about their own work, but about other QIskitters' work - and talking about that work. It should be someone looking to hone their writing and storytelling skills, looking for writing opportunities. I'll be offering my knowledge as a writer and an editor in order to leave you detailed feedback and work on making you a better writer overall.
Number of participants
1-2 advocates.
Deliverable
A blog post every other month for the length of the mentorship.
