Hello everyone! I participated in July in a flash fiction writing competition for Globe Soup, and I managed to score in the top tier finalist submissions out of a field of 1500+ entries!
My three entries in the competition had been To Count The Stars (a story about a girl counting the stars from the hills of her homeworld), The Karpanthel Passageway (a story of two brothers traversing a passage on their bikes) and Our Last Adventure (a story of two siblings having an adventure in the jungle). Writing these 500-word stories was pretty fun, and I'm glad To Count The Stars made it this high up the list in a frankly highly competitive field of entries!
The judges at Globe Soup did recommend that these stories are great enough to submit to other competitions and literary magazines - which is why unfortunately I cannot share them with y'all here just yet until a magazine has accepted to publish the story first. I shall keep y'all in the know with how things proceed!
In the meantime, you can read my other stories on my blog, such as the ones I undertook writing this year for the weekly Friday short challenge (currently on hiatus), or my current big sci-fi project, Defiler (first draft available to read for free).
Take care everyone and have a wonderful day ^_^
