Young Writers Society

SENTIMENTAL STORIES RESULTS

From poetry to prose, YWS Olympians have faced both the physical (shape poems) and economical (six word stories) trial our Rio counterparts are likely experiencing. However, what about the mental? YWS' Writing Olympics brought in the fourth event, demanding participants to get up close and personal with their writing skills and willingly embark on an emotional roller coaster. Taking inspiration from a supplied list and delving into the burrows of their minds, our thirty-one competitors used emotive language in an attempt to encapsulate the fundamental essence of human feeling.

Judging was no easy feat, leaving me an emotional mess. I laughed. I cried. I feared for my life. In the end, however, three victors came forward.

Gold
@Wolfical
with longing

Silver
@Ellstar
with expectant

Bronze
@Strange
with insecurity

Thank you to everyone who entered! Reading all of the stories, I was overwhelmed and impressed with the amount of vigour and passion that was poured into each. Congratulations to all!

O.o Wow! Thank you so much! <3

Did you notice that CandyWizard's story had a double meaning about both water and a person? I only noticed the person side, until he humbly noted that the same words can be applied to water. It's so coool!

Congrats guys!
