Reminder: Ekphrastic Challenge Deadline
Don't panic!!
I'm just popping in to remind everyone that my Ekphrastic Challenge ends on February 1st (MST)! As I'm writing, that's right around 4.5 days.
I'll be posting the winners by the end of day February 5. First place will receive a $10 tip, second place a $5 tip, third place $2, and any runners-up will get $1.
For more information, please revisit the rules article below. There you will find the story criteria, the rubric I'll be using, and the photo assignments.
All the stories I've read so far have been incredible. No matter who wins, I'm honored to have been able to read the creations of your minds. You are all so talented. Thank you so much for joining in on the fun. ❤️
You'll be pleased to hear that this will not be the last of this challenge! I'm planning to run it again. Whether you participated this time or didn't get a chance to, it will be open to everyone. What I love about this challenge is that it allows the community to inspire the community. Everyone gets to contribute to the prompts-side and the submission-side, making it all the more special for everyone involved.
I'm not sure exactly when I'll run it again—probably in a few months, around spring—but if you're interested, stay tuned. Hope to see you there for it!
I'm very excited to read the rest of the stories!
Cheers!

Nothing to Show for it
In my third grade gym class, a man called Mr. Flower came to teach karate. What he showed us was like a structured dance, rigid in its rules but flowing like honey throughout my little body. I adored it so much that I convinced my mom to enroll me in his program and to my surprise, she did. My sister joined too and we attended weekly. I’d learn the combinations, memorize them, and teach them to my friends. I felt like I’d found something I’d lacked, that filled me up. It didn’t take long to ascend through the belts (white, yellow, orange) and smash the more complex moves.
