Competitive Writing: The Brightest and the Best

Two weeks ago I had a go at the Writeoff competition, writing a story over a weekend to fit the prompt: Behind Closed Doors. This was my first attempt at such a competition. To my surprize, my story came out as the winner!

Its successful is probably as much due to being a simple fun story with nothing controversial, as due to my amazing writing skills, but still, it’s very nice to feel that I can compete with some of the top writers on this site and win, even without my usual science gimmicks.

I’ve now finished a new version, rewritten to take account of all the feedback I received (thanks to everyone who contributed to that). Check out: The Brightest and the Best.

I feel like I've seen several entries for the "Behind Closed Doors" competition in the featured box lately. Nice to hear that yours won!

I can't say I think the way you told the story of what really happened in Twilight's entrance exam is how it really was, but it's got to be my favorite interpretation. I mean... Hatching a dragon egg as a filly? We don't know how magic works in Equestria, but that sounds next to impossible to do.

Those instructors are in for a surprise

I shall check it out and tell you what I think about it.

I added your insights to my BlogPost about UnicornTeleportation and credited you. While I was at it, I wrote a new BlogPost. Unfortunately however, it has nothing to do with Physics.
