Curation for Creatives [MSP Curation]
I am working to do some creative writing curation for the Minnow Support Project- probably one of my favorite places on discord! All 5 posts will be upvoted by the @minnowsupport account, and in addition, my top pick will also be resteemed. Come check them out- steemit is full of great writers and these are some of the highest caliber.

@staceyjean wrote this poem called Dreaming Out Loud, a series of surreal images that in the end, seem to communicate that the world keeps going, even as we try to capture it.

@bollutech wrote this really cool poem of extended metaphor using literary devices as a metaphor about writing poetry.
I always appreciate where writers explore their knowledge of their craft in this way. Check out Artdentity.

@cizzo wrote Apollo's Fire, a short story that juxtaposes drug use with VR as an escape from reality. It's really well written and I think the final theme brings something new and interesting to science fiction.

Twilight of the Long Road Come by @negativer explores how technology would be viewed years in an apocalyptic future, and the consequences of playing with the unknown.

To be honest, I am not entirely certain how to explain "The Meadows" by @mariebellehelene. I love the word play and the use of internal rhyme, and just think it's pure beauty.

Very Nice :)
Thank you soundwaves! Glad to see you back!
Thank you for the curation and the lovely description of my story @sunravelme :)
Absolutely! It was too good not to include. Good luck in the contest!
Super cool. I like that you're doing this, and that you mentioned my story. Thank you @sunravelme!
I love having you as part of the writing community! You write good stuff ❤ good luck in the contest!
Wow....that's art!!! All of it, but especially the first two surreal ones. I found you by searching "writing curation" I think - while looking for an account that posts on writing contests/challenges. I didn't have any luck finding what I was looking for (but, glad I stumbled upon your account!)...
Do you know if that's a thing? A weekly round up of writing contests/challenges? The internal search function is kinda...um...not so efficient to put it in the least negative terms I can lol
Happy Holidays!
I have not heard of anyone doing that, but that would be an excellent idea. I know that The Writer's Block and MSP/PAL servers on discord both have channels dedicated to people posting their contests. @gmuxx runs a regular fiction contest, and @robyneggs runs a weekly poetry contest. If you end up getting on either of the discord servers, hit me up at sunravelme☀#0514 there- I run the poetry workshops in both servers.
Oooh cool thanks for the tips - it can be so hard to find people to follow on here. Random searches uncover some real talent though. I keep meaning to be active on discord, thank you. I'll definitely visit ! Poetry workshops sound great.
