yeah write #200 challenge: writing challenge winners

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]Mmmm, you’re a star!

And the audience loves you!

And you love them

And they love you for loving them

And you love them for loving you

And we love each other

And that’s because none of us

Got enough love in our childhoods

And that’s showbiz….

Kid.

Of course, if you’re not one of the merry murderesses of Cellblock Six, the “love” you’re here for is the results of this week’s challenges on all three of our grids – nonfiction, fiction|poetry, and microfiction. Well, you’ve got it coming. In fact, you had it coming all along.

When it comes to the popular vote, though, I didn’t do it. And if I’d done it? how could you tell me that I’d done wrong?

What I will admit to, on the other hand, is handing out the others. The editorial staff picks, that is. Every week our editors comb through your submissions looking for their favorites. Picks are based on writing quality, how successful the author is in conveying information, and just plain style. If you got a staff pick this week, grab your badge from the sidebar and wear it with pride!

Once you’re done reading through the staff picks (and congratulating the winners in the comments), keep scrolling down to check out who won the popular vote on all three grids.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

You have two more weeks in February and we’d love to see you try one out. Stop by the coffeehouse to check out the poetry slam rules, take a peep at the event on facebook for a list of folks who’ve tried it out, or check out this post in our writing help section for a more in-depth look at sonnets.

And if you just can’t with the sonnets and all those rules? Never fear, we’ll be back next month with a completely different poetry form. I know, ’cause we just finished picking it out. Hint: no, you won’t have to write in iambic pentameter. I dreamed about iambs and trochees last night. I need a break, too![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”23720″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle” border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” title=”rowan” img_link_large=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_separator color=”grey”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Weekend moonshine grid opens today at 6 p.m. eastern time

Pop. Six. Squish. Unh-uh. Cicero. Lipschitz.

You’ve got it coming. So why not get it in the friendliest little gin joint that never existed, the weekend grid at yeah write? We got burlesque performers, ballerinas, and the occasional double act. What we don’t got is commercial posts, so leave yours at the coat check.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]
