Congratulations Vera. You and I just a step away with having read 7001- 10,000 pages.

Love the badges, Tia. It’s nice that we can collect them all depending on how many words we read.

This month I shall aim for the Ace badge.

Thank you Ri for hosting.

Thank you Mrina! And yes I aim to enter the GOATs category this month

Girls, I hope you remember I shared my story, The Whispering Book, with you a few days back. I submitted the story for a writing contest on Penana (a Hong Kong-based writing platform). Today, the result was declared, and I came first in the contest! I can't believe this! I didn't participate in writing contests much previously. And I never participated in a fantasy contest before. For the first time, I wrote a fantasy story for a writing contest. So, I'm very glad, surprised, and overwhelmed. I never thought, even for one second, that I would win the contest. It means a lot to me! So, I thought about sharing the news with you. Pavitra and Kinu, both of you read the story when I shared it on the chat thread of Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyar Mein.

Here's the link to the declaration and the closing remarks.

Your stories would be a comfort read for everybody

Keep up your good work!!!😍👍🏻 I am getting so much of learning from you & other fellow writers on this platform

I read the story and I really liked it

Edit: one of the best things is that the ebb and flow of the story remained constant till the end! So kudos to that! I loved it! 🥰

I won’t have time to aim for the GOATs this month so it’ll either be a repeat of Whiz or Ace.

I’ll probably aim for GOATs in June.
