Tips and Tricks for how to write OTMs:
- Collect quotes about the person or program to include in your OTM.
- Write in a narrative style that paints a picture for the reader.
- Type your OTMs on a Word/Google document, then copy and paste onto the OTM website.
- Break your OTM up into more than one paragraph to ensure your reader doesn’t get bored. Plus, it makes it easier to read!
- Use month-specific examples and events because it is an Of the Month, not an Of the Person/Program.
- Write about something/someone you are passionate about!
- Remember that these OTMs are public and can be ready by ANYONE, including the individuals you write about! So make them amazing!
- Proofread your OTM before submitting it to ensure that spelling and grammar are correct!
- Start your OTM at least two weeks in advance of the due date to ensure your stress level stays low and the quality of the OTM stays high!
