The Music Box

Back in May 2006, I submited the following story to the Writer's Digest 75th Annual Competition to compete in the Genre category:

The Music Box  (18+) Honorable Mention Winner in the 75th Writer's Digest Competition. #1093302 by SantaBee

2 Nov 2006, I got a welcomed surprise in the mail. Writer's Digest sent me a certificate saying I earned an Honorable Mention. There were over 19,000 entries and those scoring between 11-100 earned an Honorable Mention.

Quote from the letter:

This year's contest attracted close to 19,000 entries. Your success in the face of such formidable competition speaks highly of your writing talent, and should be a source of great pride as you continue in your writing career.

Signed,

I just want to thank alicengoreland and Starr Phenix . Alice, for sponsoring the contest that inspired the story, and Starr for her unwavering support in my writing.
