I Thought I Was Winning at Life… Until Everyone Started Leaving Me
I never imagined my triumph would turn into my tragedy. I thought I was winning at life. My new apartment overlooked the city skyline, and I could almost taste the champagne as I accepted my third promotion in five years.

Introduction Someone sent me a tip for a story of mine yesterday, it was for an entry in an unofficial challenge, but it really gave me a lift. I didn't need a lift but it still gave me one, and I thought it would be good to list a few of the benefits of tipping, as a tipper and a tippee (is that the correct word?)

Runner Up
When I was a kid, I would read everything and anything, though admittedly I gravitated toward fiction.

I was figuring out my residency process in the U.S. I had momentum.
