Winners of the "Lost in a Story" Challenge

The Vocal + Assist Challenge

Pictured are some of the quality stories submitted to the challenge

The Vocal + Assist Lost in a Story Challenge made a big splash. Twenty One Vocal Creators enjoyed crafting their personalized narrative within the framework of a well-known story, film, or television show. Imagine the delight of inserting yourself into C.S. Lewisโ€™' renowned "The Chronicles of Narnia" series or becoming a character in one of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies. It's a fun way to engage with familiar stories.

The idea for this highly successful challenge originated from Darnell Lee, known as D. D. Lee on Vocal, an admin at Vocal + Assist on Facebook. Thank you Darnell for this great challenge idea. Thank you also for your brilliant work in both the Vocal and Facebook communities. Explore Darnell's exceptional content on Vocal; he is an outstanding writer.
