Excited to share that I've made the FS in @writingbattle.bsky.social! I was also fortunate enough to garner 4 special shout-outs for specific pieces of my story.

A bit of good news for a semi-sour week: I made the "honorable mentions" for the Elegant Literature for the first time. Time to aim for the top ten and get published in this contest.

I'll take a HM. Great competition and fine outcome, albeit unexpected.

Here's the final result of my story! While this is my best performance, I'll say that the best is yet to come!

A bummer of a result since this was my favorite story I've written in a while, but I'm excited to see feedback!
