Finish the Story Contest - WEEK #23 WINNERS!
Hoist the colors, proud storytellers!
What's boiling in the bananafish kitchen (the news!)
Thank you all for your ongoing sustain!!! The contest is evolving awesomely and the community is growing steady notwithstanding the crypto-winter + the torrid summer. If you know other great steemians feel free to invite them to share the fun.
Our fiction master alchemist @calluna will write and curate the 24th edition! Thank you Cal, I'm eager to see how everyone will develop your story, considering that I already sunk my fangs in it during a tasty preview.
Thanks to @curie's donation also this edition will reward the participants with an overall pot of 8 @steembasicincome shares!
Alright, let's cut the chatter, brave storytellers, the winners of the 5 @steembasicincome shares are:
@gwilberiol: he wins the 1st prize of 4 SBI shares. A very fresh story where he displayed an impeccable dialogue technique who immersed the reader in a story of innocence and wonder. It's not easy to reproduce teenagers thoughts and reactions from their perspective, in a convincing way. The interpretation about the cumuloid was also very original and the whole story had an aura of poetry.
@ediblecthulhu: 2nd place and 2 SBI shares for our sparkling new friend, herald of the Gods from the outer space! He managed to create a fantastic mood and there's something magic in that contact between the couple of teens and the benevolent entity. The knowledge of the supernatural in a single, neat package.
@calluna: she wins 2 SBI thanks to a well-deserved popular vote! As always, she skilfully built the tension all along the story thanks to a rhetorical repetition. Everyone have been totally engaged and, personally, I still wonder who really is Vicky.
@cyemela, @theironfelix, @marcoriccardi, @seesladen, @oivas, @tristancarax, @opiman, @stever82, @maverickinvictus, @sarez you all did great and I'm always surprised by your ideas!
.. see you all tomorrow with another story and a rich pot of 8 @steembasicincome shares!

Sorry I was distracted this week. Among other commitments, I've been pet sitting every other day for two dogs and two cats. I come home really tired :)
I hope this week to be more engaged. Congratulations to the winners and participants.
How was your research Dr. Moore? Did you discover something that we can include in the contest? 😁
Oh, yeah. Creepy, creepy stuff about an invasive, pervasive parasite. Whenever you feel like going dark--there's the place. Looking forward to this week's story. Hope I get inspiration.
Uhm I think that one day it will be me getting inspiration from your research.. so many times nature beats the most twisted fruits of imagination! Parasites are an example.. or also some insects like the manthis 😱
Excellent article. I learned a lot of interesting and cognitive. I'm screwed up with you, I'll be glad to reciprocal subscription))
Oh wow! :D Honored and thrilled! TY for the great contest and congrats to everyone on the fantastic stories! <3
