This is my entry from @writeandearn - my project account:
https://steemit.com/writing/@writeandearn/the-rising-of-the-devout-write-001
"The Rising of the devout" is a life story of a young recruit in the Civil Service with high moral values which prevented him from compromising in the place of work. Despite several setbacks and attacks, he scaled to the peak of his career.
I hope it'll make a good read.
Thanks to @sndbox and @celfmagazine.
Me tomo la libertad de dejar por acá un cuento corto de @marlyncabrera que, con su característico estilo elegante y pulido, construye un perturbador relato alrededor del misterio de los espejos y sus simbolismos.

Cuando se persigue un sueño a veces se sacrifica todo para alcanzarlo, pero no hay garantía alguna de éxito. A veces el trabajo de una vida depende de una simple acción; esta es una de esas historias. ¡Espero la disfruten!

STOPDo not miss the last post from @steemitboard:
Esta es la tercera parte de un capitulo en borrador de mi novela. "Borrador" porque (I) está escrito y publicado cómo ha salido. (II) Algunas cosas podrían ser cambiadas en el trabajo final, esperando a que sea para mejor, no en balde a profundizar en los imperativos del desarrollo de los personajes involucrados en esta trama.
Por otra parte, en esta historia no hay un héroe, sólo un personaje que se debate si lo que hará —salvar a unas víctimas de secuestro— es correcto debido a que antes asesinó a inocentes, y que dicho acto heroico podría poner al descubierto su identidad. Cabe agregar que es una historia de fantasía, nuevamente, en desarrollo, y que su sistema de magia también lo está. Toda buena historia de fantasía necesita lógica con su magia. Ojalá sea de vuestro agrado:

Un relato introspectivo, nostálgico y con algo de suspenso. Basado en experiencias reales adornadas con algo de ficción... https://steemit.com/spanish/@oscarina/6kgq6d-de-retorno-al-origen-relato
I have just finished writing my short story😊✏ I was inspired by the fact we always complain in life to finish appreciating everything later. So I created a complaining seamstress✂️ like I used to be😣, take a look:

Hello! I wrote this short story yesterday, as an entry for the Week 1 of the Writing Prompt contest. The assigned theme was tension, physical or emotional, but I wanted to go beyond and include both elements. That is why the plot I came up with involves a kidnapping situation and some insight on the famous Stockholm syndrome. I hope you enjoy the read!

My story is about the days we left our days when we were very much delighted that we were very much delighted, that time it was lost in our midst that sweet love has gone missing.
If you read this post, then you can understand exactly how many days you missed it

Este relato narra la dinámica familiar suscitada en torno a la muerte de una persona, considerando en el proceso diferentes perspectivas. Es una invitación a la reflexión sobre la pregunta ¿cuál fue realmente la causa de muerte de esta persona? https://steemit.com/spanish/@arar5/la-causa-de-muerte-or-relato
Hello,
That was my first story. Sometimes the events we have in the past do not leave us or we want to remember those events again. Sometimes we have a search in life, and we'll set out to find it. I wanted to give such an example in this story. Thank you for reading.

Hi, I couldn't resist the contest. The story I'm entering, Donald: A Short Story, was inspired by an episode from my early childhood. I lived in a rural area, under rough conditions, so there are stories :)
Thank you for running the contest.

Buenos días espero no haber llegado muy tarde :) aquí dejo mi entrada "El astronauta perdido". Trata sobre un hombre perdido en alguna parte del espacio, donde es abarrotado por desvaríos hasta su final.
Espero lo disfruten.

Saludos a todos. Presento a su consideración ésta mi propuesta, porque expresa bien un pasaje intenso de este relato, del cual he ido haciendo entregas, tratando, desde la ficción, asuntos delicados y graves hechos, que sin embargo no distan en demasía de muchos eventos tan o más reales que nos rodean en la actualidad. Adicionalmente, esta historia ha acogido hasta ahora, benevolente, mi modo de sentir y decir, junto a mi sed de justicia: https://steemit.com/freewrite/@aumonde/knock-out
