Those of you who are already following me will be familiar with my work as a writer and visual artist. What you may not know about me is that I am a musician as well, and have been recording my own original Instrumental Tracks for some time now. And so this has given me an idea for a contest:
WRITE ME A STORY BASED ON MY SONG
Here are the Rules
All submissions must be original works of fiction / nonfiction written for this contest. To qualify you will need to follow these steps:
- Upvote and resteem this post.
- Listen to my song "The Restless Wandering Shade" at Dsound using the link below.
- Write an original story based on my song between 50 - 1500 words in length.
- Make a post in your channel and post the link in the comment section here.
PRIZE POOL: 6 SBD

If by chance you have any playback issues you can also listen on Soundcloud here.
PRIZES
- 1st Place 3SBD
- 2nd Place 2SBD
- 3rd Place 1SBD
The first stage of the contest runs until this Friday Midnight EST North America. On Saturday by noon I will post the top three and then open the contest for voting of 1st place (2nd and 3rd will be based on how many votes for 1st each got, to keep it simple). This will run until Sunday Midnight. Monday noon I will announce the winners and pay out the prizes.
Please note I will be checking for duplicated content. I want original stories inspired by my music. This is a trail run for this contest; if all goes well I will make it a weekly event.
GOOD LUCK AND I LOOK FORWARD TO READING YOUR WORK
