Developing eWrite

Last night I spent the last few hours leading up to the Seedcamp deadline tweaking my application and finally submitted it at 11:41pm.

Last Thursday a few of us got together in Oriel house in Ballincollig to see if we could assist each other in our applications. At first I was disappointed with the turn out of only 4 people. Lesson learned, going to make sure I have numbers before I organise anything again.

I got great value out of that morning though. Thank you very much to Conor O’Neill, Phoebe Bright and Dara Burke for being there to chat about ideas and for practical tips. We created documents and shared them using Google Docs to virtually look over each others shoulders and offer suggestions where we could. I think I received (needed?) the most suggestions. Thanks again to Conor, Phoebe and Dara for your suggestions on the application form.

Also, Thank you to Robin Blandford. I think he was the only one to put his own answers to the Seedcamp application on his blog to get some feedback from his readers. Robin also allowed me to print out his answers to use last Thursday as a guide. Thanks Robin and the very best of luck with your application for Decisions for Heroes!

Roll on the 25th…
