Feather Project VII Winners

The stories have been read and sat on for a bit to see which stories stuck the most, and we have three that stood out, but there can only be one top winner, and that goes to John Pan. His entry "Good Man's Deception" stuck out the most. We definitely recommend you check it out.

Now then, just because we only have one top winner doesn't mean there's only one winner here. "A Matter of Taste" written by a returning winner, Wilkinson Riling, also made its way in along with "Beneath Her Smile" by A.C. Huff.

And of course, we have the Prose Popular read "Entanglement" by Kanwar P.S. Plaha

For everyone that participated, we thank you so so so much for joining in, and we hope you had fun, and I personally hope for continued participation. The entries are always entertaining.

Feather Project Winners Feb/March

Before I begin with this typing here I just want to say, Thank you all for participating in The feather project Writing Challenge. There were a good bit of great stories that were submitted and man, you guys did great with allowing us entry into your worlds.

With that, let's start off with the ones that made it in.

He’s Dead…But What If He Doesn’t Have To Be?

by Akito Yu

This story was a nice read and tells the tale of Akito getting a second chance she'd never thought she'd get. Now in the face of her past, what will her actions lead to this time around?

XFactor Remembrance

By D Reaper

If you've been involved in one of the other challenges, Reaper's name should be familiar. A man addicted to X-Factor is, his memories of better times doing all they can to keep him tethered... well, how does one explain this story without spoiling it? It's difficult I swear, if you don't believe me, you read it and come up with something better!

World Series '66: A Harrison Bennett Letter

by Drake C. Dyer

Favorite Baseball team in the World Series?

Road trip with seeing the sights along the way?

Oh yeah, doing all this with the one you're crushing on too. Talk about good times to come. Let's take a trip back in time and follow our Main Character on his trip to catch his favorite baseball team in action.

There was another one, but Alas, they withdrew, breaking my heart in the process. That Story was "Hello My Name is Adam and I'm An Alcoholic" by dctezcan (on here) if you get the chance, check out some of their stuff, I doubt you'll be disappointed.

Now then, for the Grand Prize winner, we have

*insert your drumroll here*

On the Road to Salvation - Part One: Beautiful and Cruel

by BJ LeCrae

This story was well written and took me for a few turns I wasn't expecting. like when the MC ****************** and then he *********** man it was surprising. but what got me was at the end when they were ***********.

Anywho this story is just simply about adventure. adventure in its purest form. No setup, no rhyme, no reason, just adventure. What's bad is I know I wouldn't have survived in this world... that's neither here nor there

Anywho, ignore those terrible desciptions and just know the stories mentioned here are fun reads.

The Next Feather Project will be coming soon... Tuesday the 2nd to be exact. Looking forward to see what comes

March Feather Project Winners

We sincerely thank you all for joining the challenge. There were some great stories that made their way in and there were some with great potential. but, there were stories that stood above the rest, and here they are in no particular order

WINNERS

Snowed In by QueenRhea (prose name) You'll gain access to the psyche of the main character as they process the happenings around them

{We made it to the cabin with no trouble and luckily with little of the perma-snow getting into our boots. Sitting on a tree stump that I’m using as a make-shift seat-- while pine needles try to find their way into every crevice of my clothes-- I can see what Jed meant when he said that everything is clearer when you’re up here. The sun pierces through the clouds and illuminates everything around us, enhancing the changing color of the leaves, the branches on the ground and even turns the greyness of rocks into a happier hue. The air is colder up here, but that just seems to make it more bracing.}

The Cost of Freedom by BristerXD (Prose name) In this, we are told the tale of one Tyler Bindweed as he navigates through life with the hand he'd been dealt

{At what point do you know what fear truly is? And what I mean is, fear in all of its means and iterations. Terror, horror, dread, creep, anxiety, and all possible ways of describing one of living nature’s most primal senses. Most attempts at understanding fear only go so far as to cheaply replicate its effects by cheaply imitating its triggers. Drawn up pictures of grotesque beings, fiction written from the point of view of corrupted minds, numerical statistics of cancer likelihoods and death tolls. Even as these come close to the true root of fear, many choose to walk free of them, the societal machination in which they are born in offering many avenues to turn away from their natural calls to the void.}

Half of Me by WritesSy (Prose Name) This story deals with the struggle of acceptance from the side of the Main Character that has been stricken with a unique dilemma.

{It was a brisk winter morning by the lake the last time I met the demon.

He appeared as he always did: unexpected but with the subtle, foreboding twinge of cold twisting my stomach. Shivering, I pulled the heavy uwagi coat tighter over my kimono--the demon offered his Montbell down jacket. I declined.

Following the creaking bamboo grove on my left and keeping the demon between myself and the reflections of the orange sunrise over the lake to my right, we shuffled along the marked trail, our breath misting the air and mingling between us. With falling snow coating our tracks behind us, we walked a good hour in silence before his graveled voice carved through it.}

The Nature of Heroes by sflydon (Prose name) This read has you follow Jack Owinsson, a farmer with dreams of glory and fame.

{Jak Owinsson stood upon the edge of the forest looking down on the military encampment below. He had finally made it. After two days of travel, he had found the camp of the Battlehawks; the most respected mercenary company in all of Kendar. He would finally be able to join the war and leave his boring farm life behind.

In his sixteen years of life, he had always dreamed of becoming a hero like the ones from the stories. So far, it had been an uninspiring beginning. On his two days of walking from Harnan Vale, he had encountered no bandits, no damsels in distress, not even so much as a wagon stuck in the road to start Jak on his way to herodom. But, then again, he supposed not every story had to begin with epic action and auspicious signs.}

We hope to see more participants in the next challenge
