I entered my first writing competition a few weeks ago, submitting a personal essay I wrote for a class earlier this semester. I figured it might be a long shot, but—I took second place! (And it came with a cash prize, so it still feels like a win to me.) I’m going to a reading later this week for some of the contest winners.
