Welcome to Week Two of my new Steemit Contest, Write FROM my Music. Congratulations to @felt.buzz and @wandrnrose7 for their respective submissions to last week's contest, which led to both of them tying for first place. Great job to both of you!

- 3rd Place 25% of SBD from today's post
The first stage of the contest runs until this Friday Midnight EST North America. On Saturday by noon I will post the top three and then open the contest for voting of 1st place (2nd and 3rd will be based on how many votes for 1st each got, to keep it simple). This will run until Sunday Midnight. Monday noon I will announce the winners and pay out the prizes.
Please note I will be checking for duplicated content. I want original stories inspired by my music. This is the second week of the contest, but I'm still treating this as a trial stage. Your support and participation is vital to keep this contest going!
THANK YOU FOR GETTING INVOLVED AND I LOOK FORWARD TO READING ALL OF YOUR WORK
