Hello to all Fiction writers and Steemians!
Welcome to the 2nd fiction writing competition week 2.
We have some wonderful stories submitted for judging in this round of competition. I was expecting more submissions by the deadline but this is also good. It makes things easier and also allows me ample time to focus on other things. But rest assured as Fiction Comp grows...we will have more and more writers taking part and hopefully a surplus of stories for you to read. :)
Compared to the first fiction comp, our pot sure has grown and is currently at 3.328 SBD for the winner.

Writing Prompt
Suffering from depression...a man feels that the world is no longer worth living for and decides to jump off a high place to end it all. As he hits the ground with his eyes closed, he feels a powerful splash hit him and wakes up to find in his own way that he is 10 years old again.
Submissions
There were three writers who took part in this round of the competition and they did a wonderful job of breathing life into the prompt with their ability. I have given each one of them my upgoat for your efforts and I wish them all the best of luck with the competition.
Ten Again, A short story by . The story of an investment broker who sacrificed his entire life making money. He thought he had it all but did he? Can money bring us happiness? Read to find out more.
Catching Winds by . The tale of an old man who lives on in bitter memory of his loved ones all long gone. He remembers an old sailor's tale of rebirth his wife used to tell him and decides to take a leap of faith. Will his faith be rewarded?
Back to the Beginning by . A failed marriage, the death of his parents, the loss of his job forces a man to turn his back on life. Believing no one will miss him, he takes his own life. But it seems that fate has more in store for him.
