Win SBD: Write FROM my Music
Those of you who are already following me will be familiar with my work as a writer and visual artist. What you may not know about me is that I am a musician as well, and have been recording my own original Instrumental Tracks for some time now. And so this has given me an idea for a contest:
WRITE ME A STORY BASED ON MY SONG
All submissions must be original works of fiction / nonfiction written for this contest. To qualify you will need to follow these steps:
- Upvote and resteem this post.
- Listen to my song "The Restless Wandering Shade" at Dsound using the link below.
- Write an original story based on my song between 50 - 1500 words in length.
- Make a post in your channel and post the link in the comment section here.
PRIZE POOL: 6 SBD
CLICK HERE TO LISTEN ON DSOUND
If by chance you have any playback issues you can also listen on Soundcloud here.
- 1st Place 3SBD
- 2nd Place 2SBD
- 3rd Place 1SBD
The first stage of the contest runs until this Friday Midnight EST North America. On Saturday by noon I will post the top three and then open the contest for voting of 1st place (2nd and 3rd will be based on how many votes for 1st each got, to keep it simple). This will run until Sunday Midnight. Monday noon I will announce the winners and pay out the prizes.
Please note I will be checking for duplicated content. I want original stories inspired by my music. This is a trail run for this contest; if all goes well I will make it a weekly event.
GOOD LUCK AND I LOOK FORWARD TO READING YOUR WORK
Original music by Greg McCann, the author of this post and owner of this Steemit Channel. The image is a fair use parody I drew of the RCA Victor logo. To view more of my work, please visit www.fireawaymarmot.com.
Here is my response to your music in a poem.
Street Dancing <3
Thank you for your submission @wandrnrose7, this is a lovely poem! I could hear my song playing as I read it. We're off to a great start here.
What was the first time I attempted something on this order, although I thought about it in the past because music does move me in a poetic way. :)
I was thinking about doing something like this a long time ago, very awesome. My internet connection is unstable with streaming stuff, I’ll try to listen when I get good connection!
Thanks, I hope you'll like my music when you do get a chance.
Cool idea for a contest! Love the music. Now think of a story...Resteemed.
Thank you. I can't wait to read your story.
What a fabulous idea for a contest! I'll pop back later to give it a resteem boost, and have listen of your song. You are so talented! :)
Thanks. I hope you like the song and that it inspires you.
Loved your song! Very atmospheric. It inspired me to write this story: https://steemit.com/fiction/@felt.buzz/the-restless-wandering-shade-an-original-fictional-horror-story-based-on-fireawaymarmot-s-song-of-the-same-name
Read and resteemed. Awesome contribution.
Thank you! I had great fun writing it! :)
