A contest with a pot of 10 STEEM and 6 @steembasicincome? Featuring poems AND stories? You're in the right place!
With our beloved #finishthestory and Mizu No Oto on break for the Easter Holidays/Spring Break, we have writing and poetry contest to get you through.
The Contest
In this contest, you are invited to write a poem and/or a short story inspired by the @bananafish - this could be anything, an action adventure, a pirate showdown, a space adventure, a grand parody, an epic poem, even a haiku, whatever you do, it's up to you!
Write a poem and/or short story inspired by the @bananafish
Your creation just needs to be inspired by the bananfish, your story could feature the bananafish itself, your poem could be a dedication, you could get inspired by the core values or even feature some of the @bananafish members as your characters. How you tie back to the @bananafish is up to you, so use your imagination and have a bit of fun. The @bananafish itself is a mythical creature, it has never been caught, although many an adventurer has tracked it this far and shared in it's bounty. This is a light hearted contest for the holidays, and because we are accepting entries as poems and short stories, you can enter one of each! Need more inspiration? Want to get to know the @bananafish tribe better? Head over to our realms on discord and join us for a pint of grog!
