Rare Story Prompts Contest #01 Winner · 7:33pm May 7th, 2018
Greetings my good ladies and gentlemen, on this delightful Spring evening. May you be full of barbecue and beer, as I currently am.
Once again, I would like to thank all the authors who entered the first contest of the Rare Story Prompts Group. For the record, the prompt:
First or second person HiE, with a FEMALE point of view character
With that said, all fics have been read, and Shrink Laureate and I have come to a decision. The winner of the contest is:
This fic was exactly the sort of thing I had hoped for when I pitched this group: a lovely little adventure, unlike anything else on site. As Shrink Laureate eloquently put it:
Hannah Hawes, Shop Assistantmade the best use of the rare story prompt to create a living character and tell an entertaining story. The duo of woman and pegasus allowed for some interesting solutions and some nice character moments; and the second-person view into Hannah's thoughts was used to sell the adventure story.
For myself, I found Hannah to be a delightful and engaging adventuring companion; no mean feat in a story told in the second person perspective. Thus, I send my congratulations to Admiral Biscuit on his win, and invite him to claim his prize.
A second Contest will be posted in the near future. I invite suggestions for a suitable prompt.
Congratulations to Biscuit!
… Who has been racking up quite a string of contest wins lately. Clearly I need to send some drones to replace him (y'know, as perfectly normal ponies do) and bring even more wins under the Horizon brand.
