Are you a budding writer? A would-be social commentator? A critic? A poet? Just someone with an opinion to share?
Welcome to our weekly Writing Challenge, where you’re invited to write on a topic of our choosing.
The best entry of the week will be published on Student Edge.
To enter, simply write a 400-word response of publishable quality to the topic outlined below, in the style of our previous writing challenge responses.
You have one week to submit your entry. The author of the winning article will receive a $50 gift card from Westfield.
Keep it smart, keep it clean and most of all, keep it under three minutes reading time.
Here's a tip: One line answers don't tend to make for an entertaining article (this isn't one of those 25 words or less competitions), so put your thinking caps on and write something you think others will find interesting.
Check out our guide to winning the writing challenge for some dos and don'ts.
This week's topic: Is the Second Season of "13 Reasons Why" Still a Problem?
The first season of 13 Reason Why caused a lot of controversy due to the way it depicted teenage suicide and how it provided a lack of support to its young viewers. With the second season now available on Netflix, the show is aiming to address some of these criticisms by providing a more detailed content warning at the start of every episode and directing young viewers to a website with mental health resources. Some mental health experts are warning that this is still not enough. What do you think?
