The Write Way to Victory
Amidst the sea of words that flow, A writer's journey must still go, Through valleys low and mountains high, To perfect their craft and reach the sky. Writing contests await, far and wide, To help hone the writer's skill and pride, To showcase their tales and heartfelt verse, And connect with readers, better or worse. Vocal.media, Writer's Digest, and more, Offer a chance to open new doors, With writing contests throughout the year, And themes that range far and near. Poets & Writers, a haven for verse, With regular contests that quench your thirst, And Winning Writers, with contests aplenty, Free to enter, to tempt the frugal penny. Reedsy, FanStory, and Gotham Writers, A trio that sparks creative fires, With monthly or weekly contests and themes, To inspire the wordsmith's wildest dreams. From The Women's Prize for Fiction to The Bath Novel Award, These contests are more than a mere reward, With cash prizes and publishing deals in sight, And opportunities to shine in the literary light. So, writers and poets, take a chance, Enter these contests and take a stance, On the path to greatness, with pen in hand, Your journey awaits, in a faraway land. - Vivia Volupta @thepleasurepen

Under the Full Moon of Miracles
Under the full moon, I stand barefoot in the dewy grass. I feel the earth's energy rise through my body. I hold a lit candle, nursing its flame to outlast the gentle breeze. I recite the incantation and call upon the moon's power to manifest my desire, giving thanks for past blessings. A month later, it happens. My wish becomes a reality, and I glow, knowing the moon's magic is real. The moon's power is not a myth but a tangible force connecting us to the universe. I will forever honor the moon's power, knowing anything is possible. Especially miracles.
