NEW 'Outsider' Pic-a-Topic Writing Contest - Win SBD or SBI (SteemBasicIncome)

Hello everyone. Beginning today (Fri. June 22, 2018) We are launching the new writing contest, with a closing date set to be Thurs. June 28, 2018 at Midnight EST. 

                                                 

So, roll out that parchment paper, grab your quill and some fresh ink to begin creating your most celebrated, literary masterpiece...Right here on Steemit.

If you don't have any of that stuff mentioned above to write with, then some type of digital device will do.

Just Pic-a-Topic from the list below, relax your troubled mind, and begin writing. The title of your essay/story does 'not' have to match the choices below...just stay within the category selected.

Here are the Topics to Choose From:

1. My Early Childhood (One event, or a general description)
2. My Fears (Or one fear that you have/had)
3. Pets (Any story about a pet you have or had)
4. An Encounter With a Ghost/or Spirit
5. Do Angels Exist? (What's Your Opinion?)
6. Feel or Felt Like an Outsider (Weird, odd, rejected, ignored etc.)
7. A 'Seemingly' Crazy or Strange Neighbor (It's Your Judgement)

The prize structure is being changed for this weeks contest (slightly) because we want to offer a better reward to the story we either liked the most, or felt it was better in format etc. OR...for some other biased reason. So please don't anyone get offended, if you get picked for a lesser award. OKAY??? We love you all...(Except for scammers)

Prizes:

Three 'top' places with number one receiving 'two' SBD or SBI, or combination thereof...The second and third picks will each receive 'one' SBD or SBI

All the Stupid and Ugly Rules are Listed Below. At least we're not ridiculously complicated like some contest promoters are on this platform...We never ask you to include a selfie with your head inside the mouth of an alligator, while sipping soda from a wash basin at a junk yard, in a country you don't normally reside...Then make you 'claim' the 0.5 award by posting an acceptance on another social media site, where you must get at least 100 thumbs up from members of the clergy...No...We don't do that...

Rules

• English Language Only (Sorry) We have a working knowledge of a couple others, but not well enough to 'rate'
• Try to Keep Your Story at About 1,000 Words or Less (A little over is Fine)
• One Entry Per Person
• 'Link' This Announcement Page at the End of Your Post
• Post a Link to Your Entry in the 'Comment Section' Below (So we can find you)
• HAVE FUN

If your little heart desires...you can up-vote, re-steem or help promote this contest in some other way.

That's about it...If I think of anything more, I'll be back with an edit, or put in a follow-up post.

Have a Happy Day.

Regards,
