"How the Raven Met the Angel" earns an honorable mention in the second SIA "You Tell Us" short story contest
I'm very happy to report that my short story,
How the Raven Met the Angel
earned an Honorable Mention in the SIA "You Tell Us Short Story Contest, Part 2."
I submitted this short story and among several entries, it earned an honorable mention. I'll be releasing it soon by itself.
But...
I actually encourage anyone interested to actually check it and a bunch of new short stories out that were recently released in a new anthology Writers in Lockdown .
Writers in Lockdown: A collection of short stories
Since the contest also coincided with the coronavirus lockdown, I submitted it for publication of this book, which is available as an ebook or as a paperback. The short stories in this collection were written by fellow writers during the recent events and the lockdown. It is a non-profit book and once we pay for the production costs, the proceeds are going to be donated to a charity.
I'm really proud to have participated in the contest and the anthology, among several other really awesome stories. I have met new and interesting people and learned a lot.
