Hello, Penny Pub Writers!

***Please make sure to read the important announcement below ***

Thanks to everyone who participated in our RevampAversary writing contest! I’ve enjoyed reading the diverse topics and found a number of entries lovely.

Though it was difficult to pick three winners, I am happy to announce that Nele 🍵, Candy Kennedy, and J. Avery Stewart were selected as our top stories. By the end of the week, these writers will receive a $25 tip (reminder: you must be using Medium’s tipping function and have a link for me to access your tip jar). Congrats, guys!

I will link the winning stories below so you can read them if you haven’t already. I’ve also included two honorable mentions for you to check out.

Important Announcement

***The Penny Pub will pause publishing new writing prompts and accepting story submissions indefinitely***

This news may come as a disappointment, and we completely understand. Change can be difficult! We aren’t saying goodbye, and we may resume publishing writing prompts in the future, but for now, we need to pause.
