S&S Invitational Winners + Scholar Showcase

The Invitational is our bi-weekly, super-duper, writing contest. It is where we match quills and draw blood all for the sake of the craft. We all know a 'friendly' competition never hurts anyone, much, especially when it can be used as a platform to improve your writing. 🙌

🥇 Gold: 50 SCHOLAR, 3 SCRIBE, 2 HSBI, 300 Ecency points
@stuartcturnbull - Be A Lawyer, They Said

Good. Now, before we get to the claim, and your opponent-in-law,’ Aeler glanced at the other bench. ‘Good to see you this morning Counselor Muthicc.’ He looked back at the young attorney and said, ‘Would I be wrong in guessing you’re a recent addition to the Officers-of-Law Scroll?’

🥈 Silver: 40 SCHOLAR, 2 SCRIBE, 1 HSBI, 200 Ecency points
@popurri - Cori y el alma de los jóvenes muertos

The kingdom of Grace, peaceful and beautiful, was inhabited by cheerful and generous people, where the sun shone on the fields and mountains, where the deep blue sea kissed the coast with its soft, white waves, where the three-coloured bird, yellow, blue and red, woke people up every morning with its song. But this kingdom had fallen into utter darkness.

🥉 Bronze: 30 SCHOLAR, 1 SCRIBE, 100 Ecency points
@bipolar95 - Roman (The purifier)

So on this faithful day, Nainai was out picking herbs and weeds. Thus, I decided to do some snooping and also heed to the call that has been beckoning. But unfortunately, I got caught right before I could even see what the inside of the room looked like.

The Invitational will be taking a break until the 6th of September. Do not fret however, we are announcing something just as special this Monday! 😉

Greetings and welcome to the Scholar Showcase! 👏🕺🍻 This is where we reward our diligent Scholars for their amazing engagement in the community. 😮 I know! Rewards for free? Where's the catch? There's no catch! If you are an active member in the comments, you can be selected for free prizes! 😱

Easy! All you have to do is be a good person. I know this comes easier for some than others though. 😅 So in layman's terms, we'll reward constructive engagement as we see fit.

Criteria that might help you get selected:

• The more comments = the better;
• Constructive/helpful feedback;
• Engagement centered on the piece of fiction;

⚠️ Comments must be in English to be eligible.

You each receive 1 HSBI for your engagement in the Scholar and Scribe community. Thank you for your contributions and for being model Scholars. We hope to see you again!

As for the rest of you - get to engaging! Let us become better writers together!
