Jayna, I'm sorry I missed this when it was "current."
I did really enjoy reading your story right now, and I'm glad you're on the "short list" for the Steemfest thing. Wishing you the best!
And if you'll be kind enough to reply to this comment, I'll reward your article ex post facto...
😄😇😄
Thank you, friend! I am definitely vying for that ticket. We shall see what we shall see. I've got my short story written. But of course now I'm wringing my hands about whether it could be better. There's so much at stake! But it's all good. It is very fun to be in the running. :-)
Good luck! :D
