T minus 10 Days
With ten days and counting until the deadline on 20th March at 00:00 GMT/UTC, I hope you’ve been inspired to the point of having some—if not all—of the first draft written and soon ready for that editing and polishing phase. If not, no worries. There’s still 10 days to get it done. Here’s the prompt in case you missed the announcement post:
Your prompt:
The nearest star to us is 4.25 lightyears away, that's why wishes take at least 9 years to come true.
The prompt is to inspire, in any way or form, that which comes to you. The contest title “Fact To Fiction” refers to the structure of the prompt that started with a fact and ended up in fiction. Use this for however inspiration takes form in your written entry.
Note: entries in the comments of this post will not be considered. I will make a post on March 14th, 2018 to declare the contest open for entries, where you can comment your entries to.
Check out the announcement post for the rules, judging criteria, and prizes. I will be declaring the contest open for entries on 14th March—four days from now—where you can comment with the link to your entry post on Steem, and it will be open for entries for 6 days, ending on the 20th March just before midnight GMT/UTC.
Please make sure to indicate that your entry is for this contest if you submit your piece for feedback in The Writers’ Block critique queues, so that I know which pieces to away from and not look at, in fairness to all participants.
The payout of the contest opening post on the 14th March will go to animals in need, by donating it to @tarc. 10 STEEM was already donated with the announcement post. You can help them, too. They need you.
This payout of this reminder post will be added to the prize pool and split between the two runner-up entries.
With many thanks to @bex-dk and @josie2214 for donating SBD and STEEM for the prizes!
