A place for writers to encourage and inspire one another.

It's been a minute, sad the competition didn't work out (not many submissions).

Here with something I wrote for another competition that I lost. Paying to join a competition, losing, and getting an automated rejection letter sucks. Would have loved at least a singular human sentence.

Anyway, hope you enjoy my little story!

I've applied to plenty of magazines and haven't gotten in, so I figured I'd apply to a paid competition. It's a medium sized magazine so I don't think I just got scammed. I suspect it's paid because the prize pool was pretty large (250 bucks for I think 20 winning writers). Thank you for reading my work!
