From judge/queen KiKi Walter who picked Honeys as her honorable mention 💙 "Maybe it’s the memoirist in me, but I’m a sucker for good dialogue. And that is what made this story such a strong contender for me. I found Evie’s use of dialogue to be natural, charming, and fun." - KiKi Walter

I don't know, I'm pantsing it. Every episode features another weekend they spent together in the past in the context of this one weekend where they're reunited at 40. So I have loads I could write, but I'm conscious of the story needing to wrap. I will probably finish it in 2-3 more episodes.

Feel free to, but it's just a short story I wrote in a couple of hours based on a drunk prompt. It's published so it's not like I'm going to submit it anywhere. I'm not sure what the word count is.

Evie King @evkingwrites.bsky.social · 07/09/2026
Rom-com. This was a departure for sure. Do you feel like you need him to do more to tell you how he's feeling? I wanted it to be ambiguous the way it is between dance partners, where there's ego and love and competition and intimacy and it can look a lot like romantic love, whether it is or not.
