I did it! I did it! *does happy dance*I got my short story entry "Once Upon a Waking Dream" for Target's #OnceUponNow writing contest in on the morning of the last day. Whew!!!
I had found out about this contest just a couple weeks before the deadline, but jumped right in!
It's a modern day, coming-of-age, fairy tale about a little girl who thinks she might be a secret princess from another realm. You'll have to wait until the very end to see if it's true. Please go read it and vote on each chapter and share it with your friends. Thank you!!!
If you are reading this after the contest has ended, please vote and share anyway. This story has become the prologue to an entire series I'm writing about high school misfits (like I was). I think it is appropriate for middle school age and up. My daughter is 15 and I'm 48 and we both enjoyed reading it!
