Hello Steemians,
Before I go into the details of the contest, I would like to speak my mind. I joined Steemit in Oct’17 and had been swimming around in these waters since then.

In my amature Steeming days I had no one to guide me and I was just posting on my own doing random stuff and roaming around without much thought and then I found the PAL on discord and later on stumble upon Indiaunited. Through these channels, I got to meet some very talented peoples, people with vision and very good human beings. Hive account@paps / Hive account@bobinson / Hive account@crimsonclad / Hive account@soundwavesphoton / Hive account@hoschitrooper / Hive account@vincentnijman / Hive account@rougebot/ @Steemflow / @Jatinhota are to name a few humble people (I think these blog will go super lengthy if I sit and mention everyone that has supported, guided, and inspired me on this platform)
The purpose of hosting this contest is to get to as many minnows involved and who are looking forward to showing their talent. I am very well aware that there are some really talented guys who just because of their Minnow status go unnoticed. I am hoping that this contest will bring the hope back and keeps them moving forward as it did to me.

Rules:

The challenge is simple. I’ll give you guys a theme/ Concept or Scene, where you have to develop a story around it. Rules are as follows.

• The contest is to promote minnows, so contestant with SP more than that of 1000 will not be taken in as for winner, however, the support and post are always welcome.
• Avoid copy-pasting, it is my humble request to everyone to avoid plagiarized post.
• Please take this contest as a challenge and you have the freedom to select any genre, as long as the story resonates with the provided theme, concept or scene.
• Upvote and Resteem to reach as many minnows as you can (Also it would be nice if the reward pool gets bigger)
• Contest ends on 20JAN2018 23:59 Indian Standard Time IST, Which give you time to draft the story, so be creative. Don’t rush, there is no early bird reward here.
• One entry per users. Please post the link to your entry in the comments
• Winners will be announced on 21JAN2018.
