S&S Invitational: Heroic Edition

πŸ•Ί Welcome to the Scholar and Scribe Invitational πŸ•Ί

The Invitational is our bi-weekly, super-duper, writing contest. It is where we match quills and draw blood all for the sake of the craft. We all know a 'friendly' competition never hurts anyone, much, especially when it can be used as a platform to improve your writing. πŸ™Œ

πŸ₯³ Last Invitational Winners πŸ₯³

πŸ₯‡ Gold: 50 SCHOLAR, 3 SCRIBE, 2 HSBI, 300 Ecency points
@wrestlingdesires - Princesses And Handcuffs

A girl of perhaps nine looked up from her coloring book. "I want to be a detective too, Daddy. I can help you catch that bad old thief!" Charles smiled as he picked up the small child. "I know you could Gloria, but you're my princess. Princesses don't go chasing after criminals."


πŸ₯ˆ Silver: 40 SCHOLAR, 2 SCRIBE, 1 HSBI, 200 Ecency points
@popurri - Recovering Her Love

He did not like the way she looked. A woman who had lost her femininity, her value as a person, and her strength. She was like a being without feelings or emotions, whom life carried like a leaf in the wind. That's how she felt, that was going to change. Her father always treated her as an inferior being. He was upset with her mother when she was born, he was expecting a boy and couldn't have one. For him, women were in life to serve.


πŸ₯‰ Bronze: 30 SCHOLAR, 1 SCRIBE, 100 Ecency points

@loveth97 - Little Woman

"No buts Ivy. Femininity is not only about dressing, dear. It entails gracefulness, being humble, sensitive and having empathy not this...,” she gestured to her daughter's dressing. β€œWhat is wrong with kids of these days!” Ivy silently went inside to change when she saw that her mum was furious at her.


πŸŽ–οΈ Runner Up: 50 Ecency points
@seki1 The Peak Of Femininity

So she went to pay while he looked on at the pictures. They still had a long trip ahead, ending with a big birthday party, a party Ash had once dreaded, now he looked forward to it as he saw his best friend slay in the emerald dress he picked. Femininity had never looked better.
