The Gun Counter

I am so stoked I can finally tell you guys about this. I submitted a SCI-FI story to Writers of the Future and received an honorable mention!

Honorable Mentions:
...
Matthew Mayner of Idaho
...

This is the coolest thing that has happened in my writing career so far.

I know this isn't just a "thanks for submitting" award, because my first story that I submitted didn't get one.

They're going to send me a certificate in the mail and everything. Sweet!

I know it's not the same as winning but if my story "Battlefield Pickup" was trash I know I wouldn't have gotten an honorable mention.

So without further ado, here's Battlefield Pickup.

Congratulations!!

good for you. Nothing like a little encouraging feedback from the pros.

Congrats

Cool! Someday, we'll be able to say, "Yeah, I knew him back when he was submitting stuff to a gun forum, and now he's on the bestseller lists!"

Congratulations!

So cool! Congratulations on the recognition. Looking forward to reading it.

Congratulations

Excellent!

Bravo!

Look what just arrived in the mail today!
