Totally Meta

Hey, everybody. I managed to score another win a couple weeks ago, on Reedsy’s weekly prompt contest.

The prompt was Write a story where the characters start to realize that they are, in fact, just characters..

My story, That All Important First Scene, took the prize. It’s a short bit of self-referantial work, based on a writing having a tense conversation with one of his characters during an explosive scene.

Please, feel free to check it out here:

And maybe give it a like, if you enjoy it.

Thanks, and please keep reading!

The Wonderful Reedsy

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned it before, but I’m very appreciative of Reedsy. It’s run by a great bunch of people, people who are willing to provide a forum not just for entertainment, but to help writers get there work published. They provide a wide variety of services to help aspiring authors, services like tutorials and editing, not to mention the huge shot-in-the-arm of their weekly writing contest.

The talented editors at Reedsy throw out a list of prompts every Friday, challenging and encouraging writers to come up with original, imaginative stories. Each week, they pick a winner, whom they gift with a monetary prize and the invaluable benefit of publication on the Reedsy Blog.

I recently had the honor of winning the weekly contest, one of the few times I’ve been able to see my work published. It was gratifying. So a huge shout out to the folks at Reedsy!

If you have any interest in reading my prize-winning piece about one time when a dog actually did eat someone’s homework–and then followed them to school–check it out at the link below.
