To celebrate hitting the milestone of 600 followers I am holding a small contest.

I wanted this contest to be a little bit different. I want to celebrate our community of fiction writers AND (more importantly) fiction readers.

To win SBD I want you to tell me what your favourite fictional post of the week is.

But this is the twist: it can not be one that you wrote. I want you to tell me about the fictional post that someone else wrote and why they deserve to win.

What is at stake?

The person who wrote the winning fictional post (the writer) will receive 1SBD

The person who nominated the winning fictional post (the Reader, i.e. YOU) will receive 1SBD plus all the SBD earned from this post (that’s right I am rewarding the Reader of the post more than the writer - without readers us writers are worth nothing!).

I will also upvote all valid nominations in the comments section of this post.

Rules:

• NO SUCKING UP: Do not nominate me. Even if you think my fiction rocks _{(raises hat, “I thank you!”)} I am not eligible to win.

• Only nominate a post that is fiction and is written by the person who posted it.

• Only nominate a post that has been published in the last 14 days (I know I am stretching the definition of the word “week”. I write fiction, I reserve the right to take liberties with words).

• Please don’t nominate any post with a payout of over 5$ (at the time of nomination)- this contest is about boosting the unsung fiction heroes

• You must post a link to the fiction post you nominate and you must give me a valid reason why you are nominating it (please use at least 50 words to explain why). Either post this directly in the comments section of this post or write a post about your selection, and post the link in the comments section of this post.

• Don’t nominate your own work. The post you nominate must have been written and posted by someone else

• You may only nominate ONE post

• Please leave a comment on the nominated post explaining you have nominated it for Unsung Steemit Fiction Readers Contest, and why - it is nice for the writer to know that their work has been selected by you.

• I decide who wins, no disputes. I will make my mind up mostly based on the reason given for the nomination, but the content of the post itself will also be counted.

• No need to upvote this post, no need to resteem. But I would appreciate the support (and the Readers reward increases with the post payout).

Thanks all!

Happy reading everyone!
