Every month or so, we here at The Narrative Arc run writing competitions. It’s a way to get all of you involved and writing at the very top of your game. This last contest was the cat’s meow in terms of writing quality. Some of your stories achieved wide circulation on our favorite writing platform here at Medium.

In other words, your pet stories were Boosted by platform curators. While we now have the ability to nominate your stories for the Boost, we didn’t have it when these great tales were selected. Therefore, if you’re one of those writers, we applaud you — -the curators found you first. Cool!

Thanks to all writers for their essays.

Prizes for our winners will be as follows:

$50 for the winner
$30 for second place
$20 for third place
and all finalist stories listed below are the honorable mentions.

Please make sure you have a tip jar on your story!

I realize it takes some work to get it figured out. You can do it. If I can, you most certainly will…
