Congratulations to the Winners of the Spring 2016 One-Sentence Story Contest!

Posted on September 19, 2016 - Posted in: Blog

Last semester’s one-sentence stories were a rather heavy affair.  The winners represent the heaviest.  In the end, death, love and endurance unto victory rang strongest with our readers.   The Writing Lab is therefore very pleased to announce the Spring 2016 One-Sentence Story contest winners:

In 3rd place:   Blood splattered to the floor and he had entered a new life.  – Joel Mena

In 2nd place:   I’m a heartbreak stuck on replay.  – Desirea Ortiz

And, in the number one slot…

1st place:  Looking back, they asked what happened; looking forward, he said, “big things.”  – Marcus Futrell

Congratulations to the winners and congratulations to all our participants.  The contest was an overwhelming success thanks to all of your phenomenal one-sentence stories.
