“Use your 200 words to be super, super clear about yourself. We [jury members] spend less than 5 minutes per application. It’s mean. It’s fast and it’s mean.
You have to put together something that somebody can look at, without fully understanding the nuances of who you are, and still be excited about what you do.” — Chloë Bass
Every time you apply, you are asking someone to read what you wrote. Be kind to your readers. They might be looking at hundreds, or thousands of proposals, so go easy on the art-speak and jargon and get right to the point. Remember, you don’t have reach the word limit for every question. Try to convey your ideas with fewer words, avoid repeating yourself and don’t be vague. Instead, be as specific and evocative as you can be.
