Thank you everyone for your entries. Really enjoyed reading them. Away for the weekend so I will announce the winner next week.
Was great bro, thank YOU for creating it... awesome idea! Really a lot more challenging that it would seem only having 140 characters! Got me thinking for sure!
Looking forward to the next one :)

Hey man! Amazing contest.. really like the idea and glad to have found you through @moneyinfant's contest posts!
Thanks for the inspiration and helping me train to use less words where I can... I have a habit of being very wordy! This is a great exercise for me :)

This was definitely a challenge. It's hard to tell a story in 140 characters without it seeming cut off, know what I mean? It was fun, though. Here is my entry: https://steemit.com/twitterstorychallenge/@hope-k/twitter-story-challenge-1-entry-secret-of-the-elm

Thank you.
Are the prizes actually in USD as indicated by the '$' or are they in SBD? I need to know for my Writing Contest List.
Hello there, it will be in SBD :)
Thought so, but had to make sure. Thanks!
@moneyinfant has added your contest to the list Steemit Writing Contests: Issue #22. The list is updated on a daily basis and your contest will remain on the list until its expiration - there's nothing you need to do.
The list was created to save writers the excessive amount of time spent searching through the #contest tag for writing contests. Now they can just come to the list each day, see new contests and use their time doing what they love - writing.
If you'd like to help spread the word about the Steemit Writing Contest List I'd really appreciate a resteem, but it certainly isn't necessary. The project is simply meant to help writers save time and contest creators attract more contestants.
P.S. If you know of any contests I've missed I'd love to hear about them. Thanks!
