Six Word Wonder

So last spring I entered the "Six Word Wonder Contest" and forgot about and moved on.

This spring I got the email saying that I was one of the less than 1% who made it to the Shortlist! I didn't end up winning, but I get to have one of my six word stories published in their book!

Anyway, I thought I'd share the news here, since my family is tired of hearing about it 24/7.

Here are (some of) the stories I entered:

Wind whispers secrets if you listen.

Touching the sea, I remembered her.

I’m dead! Okay, weird first thought…

Fiery desire to touch a star.

The third one is the one that made it to the book, even though I didn't consider it one of my favorites. But for a contest I spent 15 minutes on and forgot about, I am very proud of myself!

Entries for this year's contest are open as well! You can enter up to 4 six word stories for a chance to win $100 and the title "Six Word Wonder", and be published in their book!

I would definitely recommend entering; worst comes to worst, you don't win, but at least you tried! Just google "Six Word Wonder Contest", and you should be able to find it!

(Oh, and of course I used a cheesy pen name, so the name next to all my stories is "Sundarae Jomay", of all things.)
