Hi! I know this is two weeks late, but I’m new to the forum so I hope you’ll forgive me. I’m also a high school student interested in EA, and I’ve found some ways to help out in the movement despite the limited options which I’d be happy to talk more about.
I’m really interested in your ideas, and also just in how many high schoolers lurk on this forum but (like me) find the high level of discourse a bit intimidating. I’d like to write a post intended to surface and connect with those high schoolers. Perhaps from there, we can work together on making 2 or 3 happen.
I’m not an official or representative from EA or anything like that, but this sounds awesome!
Your post is really welcome. Are you asking for help in any way? If so, just say so and people can help.
By the way, yes, the discourse uses a lot of words, but a lot of the ideas are basically from high school. People are just familiar with writing with them.
What really sets good EA apart is patience, listening, and perception, and the gradual development of good judgement. There’s deep pools of talent people who don’t write a lot. This is less obvious, but these people are valuable. You are too!

maybe Reddit can work in a similar way?
I find the level hard work too, so I practice in Facebook groups :-)
(I’m older than average EAs: EA wasn’t formally an available option when I was at college.)
