Writer Desk

Build the next clear story from notes, sources, and open questions.

The Writer Desk is the practical workspace for Swisswriters.ch: collect a lead, shape a draft, attach sources, ask for corrections, or turn a timeline into a compact public-interest article.

Step 01Capture the signal

Write the main question, the people or institutions involved, and the reason the topic matters now.

Step 02Add evidence

Attach source links, documents, screenshots, dates, names, and corrections separately from opinion.

Step 03Publish carefully

Editors can shape the note into an article, interview, reference trail, or open discussion item.

Good material for the desk

  • Timeline notes: a dated sequence of events.
  • Public-interest tips: a question that deserves context.
  • Corrections: missing facts, wrong wording, or follow-up evidence.
  • Interview ideas: a person, topic, and first question.

Keep it usable

  • Be specific: names, places, dates, and links beat long claims.
  • Separate facts: mark what is verified and what is still open.
  • Protect privacy: avoid unnecessary private details.
  • Invite review: comments are open for careful follow-up.
