The project – 1001 Places to Remember is still an ongoing project which the team does not intend to stop until realizing the ultimate goal which is to produce a publication that is based on the stories shared by the Steemit community.

So far, we had not received any submission for the contest even though we put up prizes and perks to be won. Nonetheless, we take it positively and see what we can do to approach this project in another perspective. The team will be proactively dropping by through comments and posts to increase the exposure of this project in hope to gain more traction.

Again, I would like to reinstate that the project is Steemit community based which @archisteem wants to gather different stories from different places around the globe and make it into a publication. This could be the FIRST ever collection for a non-technical kind of writing. I believe that the project can prove that Steemit community hosts a large pool of talented and enthusiastic people that willing to share and create values for the larger community together.

The submission for the project is simple:

  1. Use one or not more than 3 images to write a story.
  2. Images and text should be genuinely produced by the author.
  3. The story should be 300 words or more.
  4. Use the tag #archisteem and #placestoremember.

The prizes are still unclaimed and so we decided to retain the prizes as it is until we receive at least 20 submissions.

Here are the amazing prizes up for grab:

  • 1st prize: 5 SBD (+received SBD from the concluding posts of the contest)
  • 2nd prize: 3 SBD
  • 3rd prize: 1 SBD
  • 4 Consolation: 0.25 SBD each

In the meantime, I will be working on some collaboration scheme with someone within the Steemit community to make more impact and exposure to the project. Once things get sorted out, I will make the announcement :)

Hope to see the @archisteem contributors could contribute, not forgetting those professional photographers from #architecturephotography.

Questions:

  1. the submission has to be related to architect?? Can it be, let's say a beach that I've been to and I write about my experience there?
  2. By story, you mean we have a write a fictional story??

Whoa, thanks for dropping by!

To answer your questions:

  1. Not necessary to be related to architecture, but any place you would like to tell a story. Yes, a beach with your personal experience (like a local tour guide that sort of role)
  2. By story, would recommend to be fact based as it could be a guide for people who may come to the place as mentioned by you.

Noted with thanks

The entry is it a post or we just write our story in the comment box

Write a post and use both #archisteem and #placestoremember tag :)

Cool contest, good way to aggregate experiences from around the world

I might have to dig out time and memories to participate; but given the number of amazing writers here and my lack of practice, I'm probably doomed to a consolation prize hahaha

Take it easy @motordrive, never try never know. I am sure everyone starts from a beginner like me. Even if you do not make it for the prizes, we will consider whether to include your submission into the publication as well :) It depends on the competitiveness of the submissions for the specific session that you submit.

Tips: Now it is still not well known among the good writers! It is your chance :P

Hoping can get one post done for this soon. Have idea and places, but always no time to execute it.

No problem @bboyady! Looking forward to your submission.

Cheers

oh, I think your tag miss one 's', #placestoremember not #placetoremember :)

Ok. I edit now. Thanks for reminding.

I want to participe, my English it's not good, but I can try it. I am thinking to talk about my town. Here we have a leyend

Hey @thaishps, do try it out! We will definitely go for the story first and the team can help you to further improve the content if you qualify for the publication :)

Alright! Let me check it out :)

Thank you!

Interested and have a story to write about. Please give me some time.

No problem at all, @prch!

Do you mind if I will be resteeming this post using the account @orientalhub? Please have a look at @orientalhub, @aaronli, @htliao, @honoru, and myself gave birth to the initiative with an aim to collaborate with entities and communities and bring everyone together.

Perhaps, you, teammalaysia and us may do a similar challenge like this.

That will be cool! I approached @aaronli to discuss this as well. He suggested the same :)
I think that will add #teammalaysia into the realm of @orientalhub as well, which is beneficial to every community. Let's talk more in details soon and mind if I get your discord or telegram contact?

Just sent friend request :)

Hello! Thank you so much for this interesting contest! I want to participate to share with the whole steemians community!

Most welcome. We look forward to your submission then 😁

Of course, thank you very much!

Oh, fun. I'm going to have to think about what to write about (not finding one but which) but this has made it onto my posting radar.

That's great! Appreciate that :) If you don't mind, do resteem this to let this contest known to more. Sharing is caring :P

Good plan, I so often forget to do that.

Appreciate that @tcpolymath! Looking forward to your story :)

Please when is the deadline for the submission? Thanks

Tentatively, every week we will conclude a session. Deadline will be on Sunday, 12pm EST.
Thanks for raising this up!

Commented to read again later. Maybe will join the challenge!

Alright! Come come :)

@kimzwarch, sounds like a hoot and a half! Will certainly resteem when I gain a little bit more power back under my belt. Question, is there a limit to how many submissions?

No, there is no limit. But you can submit every week to get qualify for the weekly reward (or min 20 submission for the week).

Thanks!

Would love to take part... let me give this some thought.
The first place I thought of was the flats I grew up in Johor Baru and it is so sad that I have absolutely no photographs of this place. And now it has been demolished and replaced with the Immigration.
I googled it by the way and saw 4 random pictures with the flats in the background.... haha
I like your idea because future generations would have a personal experience through the author of places that may not exist or gone through a major overhaul. It would be more than facts and figures.
Putting on my thinking cap now 😊

Oh, didn’t know the immigration building is a demolition and rebuild project. Another history fact for me :)

Sure, any place with your experience will do! And you can submit multiple times too.

I say yes yes for this contest

Alright! I will be watching out for you then 😁

I want to thank @kimzwarch for this interesting contest. This is my entry, I hope you like it.
