First attempt at a contest...and I am so frickin' excited!
FYI bang on the money with 1111 characters, 227 words, add the digits together 2+2+7=a little bit smug :)
Thankyou so much for holding a poetry contest and making the brief so interesting and enigmatic.
It is a FABULOUS idea.
Resteeming, linking and following etc...will be done in a moment.
I hope your journey is filled with Joy, laughter and fulfillment :)

Thankyou for the kind words and positive encouragement man :)
It is greatly appreciated...I'm at a crossroads in my life, where I am actually contemplating writing full time! scared face
But if ya don't make plans that scare ya...Whats the point in it all?
You asked about inspiration, it is part based on experience, real life events, wondering how it happened.
Part based in fiction to create an intimated, dramatic backstory.
I tried to write it quickly so i didn't even know where the story was going myself (I'm as surprised as you haha)
One thing I would like to add is that while you are offering encouragement to others, I would like to reciprocate for a moment, some of your insta stuff is très cool, me and a workmate were watching it as I explained about the contest.
Loving the outdoor stuff, not to mention the enormous flyswat!
LOL
Stay happy dude :)
Haha amazing... funny that you've found your way to some of that! Glad you've connected properly! Thank you... it's appreciated!
Funny... I was just practicing that poem for the first time in a long time today.. I do like the fly swat line haha... classic. Might perform it tonight... it's my last open mic that I'm hosting here in Guatemala before heading home to London... It's gonna be a good one! Feels weird to be going home.
Thanks for giving me some more info on the inspiration behind your writings and this piece. Really enjoying connecting with other writers here... and you totally have everything you need to become a full time writer... especially with the arrival of Steemit in our lives!
Thanks so much for entering... I hope you will continue to write with us each week :)
Keep up the great work my friend.
