Summary

The writers guild is a social home for content creators and the birthplace of initiatives like the DAO newsletter, blog, and scribe program. In S1 the guilds budget will be used for the writers guild ongoing operations and to develop two main initiatives - scribes program, and content incentivization for specific initiatives across the dao (mainly school of code project).

Motivation

The writers guild incubates, polishes, and supports the ongoing initiatives that serve to amplify and spread the voice of the DAO and its members - both externally and internally.

Mission, values and goals alignment

Externally writers guild provides public goods that provide users and developers with web3 educational material, and spread the DAOs message:

• The blog - distributes free educational material to onboard or deepen reader’s knowledge of web3 topics
• The free newsletter - focuses on updates, opportunities, and calls to action to activate existing members and draw in new ones
• Custom content incentivization - motivate content creators to craft material for open education initiatives, e.g., the School of Code

Internally writers guild strives to provide efficient information flow across the DAO.

• Scribes - publicly record events and decisions across the DAO while delivering the information internally to the relevant parties, thus allow members to state up to date while avoiding the growing communication overhead that comes with scale

Brand usage

At the time of writing:

• The official blog lives on a subdomain: blog.developerdao.com
• The Probably Nothing newsletter is published on Substack under the D_D banner
• Scribe notes are published on the public D_D Notion account
• Incentivized contributions to projects, like School of Code, are expected to be D_D-branded
