To the victor go the spoils

Clare Kines of The House & Other Arctic Musings won the inaugural edition of First Friday. In recompense for his well-crafted birding fiction, he received his choice of recently published books, and he picked Shorebirds of North America, Europe and Asia, a review of which appeared here.

The second edition of First Friday will appear on Aug. 4, with entries due on Wednesday the 2nd. I'm looking forward to seeing your short stories about birds, birding and birders!

How fun! I just posted a story on my blog about a birding adventure that my daughter recently had. Does it fit your criteria?

Hi Jane!

Your daughter's adventure would qualify as nonfiction 'cause it's a true story. The contest, however, is for fiction (made-up stories).

Thanks for asking! I hope you'll write a short story and participate (c:
