A Favorite Freewrite

Every Tuesday, you have a chance to win a membership to Steem Basic Income, SBI, at the Freewrite House.

Try to win one, my friends. An everlasting vote on your posts is nothing to sneeze at.

We want to make it super easy for you. Your task is to tell us in the comment section about one - or more- freewrites of others you have read in the last couple of days you really liked. Yup, not your own!!

See the rules below for details.



In an ideal world, you also give that person a nice upvote - but we are not going to check on that.

So, to be entered into the drawing, tell us about a freewrite you really liked and why. Choose from the last couple of days so others can go, visit inspired by your description, and leave a vote.

Here are the contest rules



Win, Win, Win!!!

Finding a Freewrite

I liked @waterworks "party" #freewrite this week. It was so much like planning every party I helped with. Especially, the what am I going to wear line. The best part about planning a party, is the minute it is over. It's always a plus when nobody gets into a fight. I used to be on the planning committee for my high school reunions, I stopped at 30. I let someone else deal with our 40th, and I didn't even go. Thanks for a chance, for a share at some SBI.

We don't have high school reunions like you all have here in Germany. There, you start in a class with x amount of other kids in 5th grade (if you go to Gymnasium) and you are with the same bunch through grade 13.... Ours was small. 12 kids. But I am never in Germany when they have been meeting - and a bit too expensive to make a special trip 🙃

I just nominated your freewrite for important :)

My favorite recent freewrite was tby @saryn. https://steemit.com/freewrite/@saryn/freewrite-prompt-important

This story gripped me from the very beginning. It is about a warrior who always worked alone, fighting for his king. It wasn't until he worked with 2 others, that he was able to care; finding the importance of caring, and what that meant to him. Very well written and a must read.

5 @whatisnew

That sounds like a great story!! Thank you so much for sharing it here!

I wrote my own post for Day 201 Important - and then looked at other people for that prompt.

I cannot believe how many freewriters there are now!!! Good job @mariannewest and everyone.

These are the three posts I picked by going to the end of the line of the comments. I know you are only supposed to have one or two but I barely even started and got these three!

@wonderwop - talked about his mama in an endearing way.

@starzy Wrote a well done poem about God, family and friends who sustain her.

The more the merrier!!! We love that you found more than one to share!!! Are you entered in the day-200 celebration yet? do it!! It will be fun!! And the prize pool is growing every day!!!

I'm late answering, but I cannot do selfies! My fragile ego takes a hit!

I so wished you would have joined!! I felt the same way before I entered papa-peppers selfie challenge and by the end, I didn't care anymore. It was freeing. And we gave options to hide.... One is showing up as a squirrel puppet!! but too late now.
Maybe next time lol

Hope I'm not too late, I nominate https://steemit.com/freewrite/@pixiehunter/attention-everyone-5-minute-freewrite-tuesday-important by @pixiehunter . It is a short and powerful motivational piece for freewriters, as it embodies the "what have you got to lose" philosophy, sometimes we just have to put ourselves out there, freewriting helps in that sense.

another story caught my eye. https://steemit.com/freewrite/@honeydue/a-passing-accident-freewrite by @honeydue the story is about a woman having to make a difficult choice to put all her hopes into a man that caught her love interest but ignores her, meanwhile there is another man who is also in love with her, even more than her initial love interest.

6 @abmakko

You are in time and great choices!!

I’m going with this one ”The Trolley Problem” by @lazarus-wist.

This story had me on the edge of my seat and glued in one spot. How do I write something up and not give away all of the pieces that made this story work? 🤔

You’re going to have to read it for yourself. I’m going to be quiet and let this piece do the talking.

I could see the whole venture playing out. Amazing work.

The Trolley Problem

3 @tristancarax

Way to go to build the anticipation!! Of course, we have to read it now!!!

I recently read this freewrite which really made me giggle. It was written by @alimamassstory.

It was a funny story that played on words from an old song and went over themes of friendship, envy, competition, and humility that is not really humble but cutting una way that only friends can cut.

It made me LOL!

Thanks for the contest :)
