📜✒️ Marvelous Tales Contest #17 - Announcing winners and the next contest 📜✒️
The Marvelous Tales Contest
In honor of all the creativity here on Steemit, I'm hosting the Marvelous Tales Contest.
The idea is simple: I give you two words, and you build your tale around these two words. You could write a story, make a comic or video, use a drawing or photo to accompany your tale, or even write a song. You can submit your entry by creating a post dedicated to this contest.
I will be picking the winner based on originality, creativity and entertainment value. Subjected, ofcourse, to my personal opinion, but I try to be as fair as I can!
Last week's results:
Third place
@eriesunkite's entry won 0.318 SBD
Second place
@zycr22's entry won 0.530 SBD
First place
@simgirl's entry won 0.954 SBD
Congrats to the winners!

Thank you. I would like to thank my friend Snook who will write WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT! when I win a contest. :D
@@@@@@
Thank you for joining this contest! I really liked reading your story. Will be happy to see you join again :D
Thank you for holding the contest. I would have never wrote that story, if it weren't for the two words you gave us for the challenge!
I'm happy to have provided the inspiration!
Isn't steemit great like this?
This was more challenging than I initially thought having only two words to go off of for a writing prompt.

I'm glad you managed in the end! Thank you for your entry :-)
Upvoted, to help the payout pool. Thank you for encouraging the artist of steemit. I appreciate it, since I really enjoy reading.
(any upvote considered, please pass on to @samstonehilltube to help rebuild his Rep)
Thank you very much @bashadow! That's a sad thing to hear about @samstonehilltube's old account. I just headed over there to flag the few posts that still had a pending payout and threw his new account an upvote and follow. I hope he'll rebuild quickly.
Thanks for mentioning this, it's a very kind thing of you to do :-)

Good luck everyone!
Thank you very much for your entry!
in my life I have never done something like this, it would be like a personal challenge for me but somehow I feel that I can participate, I will think it well. (:
No harm in trying! I'd be happy to see your entry :D
Thanks, @playfulfoodie. I was a little worried that my story did not end up having a lot of silver. Glad you liked it. I should think of something for this one, too. I tend to be lazy about things and it helps when someone gives me a task. And now I have a standard to maintain. Oh well.
Saaaame. External motivation!!
Haha, happy to provide you with a new task! I hope you'll join again :D
Of course I will.
