Daedalus started the topic Den monthly competition September 2018 in the forum Competitions, Open calls and Writing Opportunities 7 years, 8 months ago
Denizens who used to be members of the sadly defunct Word Cloud will remember the monthly competitions. The format was that the winner of each competition would set the theme and parameters for, and judge, the next month’s competition.

Can I get a promise from everyone listing acceptances here that as soon as the stories are published they will post something to let us know? Thanks

Such a great story, Sky! I’ve only met you briefly at York (crammed in a car on the way to the railway station with John T and Debi, I think!) but you are obviously such a lovely, humble and kind person – it makes me so happy to see someone like that achieve the success they deserve 🙂 ENJOY!

Congratulations, Elle, Daeds and Hil 🙂
Er, I have a very little success story to share – my story from the last winter comp run by Ath was long listed for a (small) competition run by a bookstore down here..nothing compared to your successes but it will be in an antho, I believe. So that makes my happy 🙂

Okay then. I’ll join in! Lots of you already know, and have already congratulated me (thank you!) – a story wot I rote came third in this year’s Bath Short Story Award – publication in the anthology later this year, I believe.
Well done, Daeds and Elle. (And all you others who are slow in coming forward!!!) -

Appreciate the vote of thanks, Baz, but that’s giving me far too much credit. It was a team effort from a group of dedicated Cloudies. But glad you like your new writing home. Welcome to the Den 🙂

Thanks, Jules, and I’ve just found out about the full collab. How wonderful to find such like-minded people.

I think we all thought it’ll be OK, it’ll carry on but just get worse to access. Not that we’d wake up to find the whole lot gone…
And yes, to see people join, and build their confidence and skills – whether that led to publishing success or not – was a real privilege and huge part of the community the cloud developed into.
