This is a huge achievement for me.
I finally progressed out of my house and into the finals, I'm steadily developing my craft on an upwards trajectory, and feedback was mixed but mostly encouraging.
Next steps: achieve top 16 (or top 8)

I've made it out of House Dunbar and into the Final Showdown along with 32 out of 161 entrants in my category
This is my first time as a finalist with #WritingBattle and I don't really know what to do with myself until results on Sunday... so I think I'll have a cup of tea... ☕

Working my way through the stories of House Dunbar (my house) in #WritingBattle ... and there are so many good ones!
Come on Battle gods! Get me out of my house just this one time is all I ask... Come on!
Best finish in Writing Battle so far. I can't wait to revise this story and sub it out.

Final results are out later this afternoon, and while I'm thrilled to make the Thrilling 32, I think this where my story's journey ends in Writing Battle.
I love the story though. It's definitely getting a deep revision this week and getting subbed out.

Best contest showing yet! Managed to see all Seven Rounds of the intial judging and lost authors who made the Top 6 of the pod.

More story results!
Disappointed to not be moving on, but this was my first crack at #writingbattle, so I'm pretty happy my somewhat swashbuckling story got an honourable mention. @writingbattle.bsky.social

Contest story finished and submitted. Looking forward to seeing what my peers produce and hearing their feedback.

I'm somehow entered in three writing challenges this weekend. The Writing Battle 1000 is due Saturday at 5p Hawaii time. Round 2 of the NYC Midnight 250 is due at 10p tomorrow. And I'm doing FAWM. This is insane. #writingbattle #nycmidnight250 #fawm
Here we go again!
I can only share my genre with you, but rest assured, I have other prompts...

Tempest Owl Battle Entry is done and submitted! Editing done and most of the chopping block decorated with stage direction and superfluous words. The Darlings saved and a story I am proud of.
#Writingbattle #Writingcommunity #FlashFiction #ContestWriting
34 words remain to be removed, then my Tempest Owl Battle Entry is done! Hopefully the remaining darlings avoid the block and the stage direction meeting the headsman is enough. Unlikely, but optimistic nonetheless.

Rough draft of my story for the Tempest Owl Battle Entry is done! Time to cull 300 words while keeping the soul intact.

Note: this one's a Judge-reviewed vs. Peer-reviewed, so a diff sort of feedback.
Look what I just got from @writingbattle.bsky.social! The new year is gonna have some interesting stories! #writingcommunity #writers #writingbattle
Growth can be painful & slow. Going from 1 Win and 1 Bye to 3 Wins in Autumn 2025 story is huge, but it is clear I still have a ways to go in craft.
It was wonderful to see so many loved my prose.
Thank you all for the feedback.
