"Crap," he said putting his helmet on the ground, "I'm going to have to sew this shirt tonight. The game is tomorrow. I've got a ton to do before my father gets home."
Luke thought he might throw-up the cheese burgers he'd consumed before he agreed to play ball. "You'll get it done."
"Man, this is all your fault. If you'd ..."
Luke cut Marcus short. "I didn't even want to play this stupid game. You tend to face mask me and that hurts."
"It will make you tougher. Besides, eating all those hamburger and fries is what is hurting you."
"Why are you always going on about what I eat?" Luke sat down on the cold bench. Reaching in his bag, he felt around for the soda pop he'd stashed away.
"Drink water," he shoves a bottle of water in Luke's face.
Luke bats the water bottle out of his hand. It hits a corner of the bench and bursts open.

- Grammarly - I use this app all the time to catch my mistakes. If I didn't have a spell checker, you would be lost in my world. haha!

Ongoing Contests
twenty-four hour short story - You gotta be quick to get this one posted in time. He posts the contest on Sunday (usually) and ends it about 48 hours later. This contest has a 2000 word limit.
Finish the Story Contest - The contest begins on Wednesday (usually) and end 5 days later. This contest will test your write skills with something a little different each week. Pletty of time to write something around the 500 word mark.
Steem Monsters Common Card Fantasy Story Contest! - Coming out roughly every week. If you enjoy card games like Magic, Yugio, and others like it, you might like this game. Write a fictional tale about the card they present in the contest and your entry just might be the one they choose to showcase.
Tell A Story To Me, And Win 5 SBD! Writing Contest - Kind of random when it comes out but don't worry. You will have two weeks to complete your work of art from the given prompt. Have fun!
Haiku - These are coming out every couple days or so. If you stuggle with rhymes, no worries. Haikus don't have to rhyme. All you need to make a haiku is five syllable on the first, seven syllables in the second line, and again back to five syllable for the last line. So easy it makes me think I'm being super product. LOL
Mizu No Oto - Every Image Has Its Haiku Contest - By reading the title, you should be able to guess how this haiku contest works. You're given an image and you write. I've really enjoy this contest because there are people here who've actually gone to classes to learn how to write haiku's; so if you want, you also can learn how to write quality haikus from reading the comments and critiques they and others give.
50-word Challenge - This is an interesting challenge and very challenging to say the least. You only get fifty words to tell a story or a vignettes. Here is a great post that will explain the difference between the two concepts. Good luck, Brave Story Writer!
