For new online writers and content creators who are currently on the grind and searching for lucrative ways to generate income, the following information should be of interest.

I'm writing to suggest looking into the fun opportunity that Vocal Media provides, by offering cash incentives to winners of the platform's regular writing challenges.

Obviously, this is not something you can count on making a living on, or even winning on a regular basis. However, I'm beginning to discover that the more you enter, the better you get at knowing what the judges are looking for with these challenges.

In fact, from my own experience, the more you submit, the more you'll want to submit. Especially with the poetry challenges.

Once your creative juices start to flow, there's no end to what you will start to create and come up with. You'll love putting your imagination to the test and creating content that could possibly earn you a prize.

In case you already heard about the writing challenges, but never bothered to take advantage of participating in one, this story will make you wonder why.

What's to Love About Vocal+ Writing Challenges

I have to admit, I love the fact that new writers and content creators just getting started on the platform, are eligible for a chance to win money.

You can enter multiple contests, multiple times, and the contests are ongoing, so you never run out of challenges to enter.

Vocal Media writing challenges can earn cash prizes for the grand winners, runner ups and those who receive honorable mentions.

For the chance at winning those hefty $200 and $500 prizes, writers need to have a Vocal+ membership, which cost a low monthly fee of roughly ten bucks.

So far, I'm still hoping to possibly win one of those prizes myself, and after having won a runner up and honorable mention for two of my previous entries, I feel like it's just a matter of time...

Here's what you should know:

Besides the 5 winners who take first place prizes in each of the challenges, other payouts include:

15 different Runners-up receive $15 each

10 Honorable Mentions receive $5 each.

These fun writing challenges fall into a variety of genres. The topics are subject to pertain to just about anything, with the formats typically including both story writing, as well as poetry or free verse.

Personally, I've found this to be a really enjoyable and stress-free way to add to my online money making activities.

The challenges generally run for nearly two months; giving you ample time to think about what you want to write, and create one, two, or more entries to submit to the current challenges.

If the idea of possibly earning cash payouts for stories and poems that you share online sounds appealing, then why not make it a point to join Vocal+ and enter any of the challenges offered at this time?

Final Thoughts

After writing on other websites in the past, I've come to appreciate the value of taking advantage of the unique opportunities that each platform offers.

Sometimes you benefit, without even trying, like I did when I won a cash bonus for a story titled: "Remembering All the Hidden Gems in Older Books that We Published". It received recognition as a "Top Story" in the "Writers Community".

That really helped my ego a lot :-)

Among the many benefits that I find to be most advantageous on the Vocal Media platform, is the opportunity to participate in these challenges that offer writers a chance to win cash, plus some shameless bragging rights.
