winner of the speakeasy at yeah write #98
Welcome idle March! Thank you for putting an end to alabaster February, the longest month of the year.
Help us congratulate Bee (for Barb) of B. Natividad , our popular vote winner this week, on her first ever Speakeasy win! Her tenderly told tale of a tiny granddaughter too much like her grandfather took our hearts. Hey, Bee — snag that badge on our sidebar and send our Reverend Mother Stacie your first line prompt for next week’s grid! Stacie@yeahwrite.me
And, oh! Hey! Since this was a low-entry week on both the Challenge Grid and The Speakeasy, we held a random drawing for a puh-rize! Congratulations to Ron from Mind of Shoo — he’s our randomly drawn winner. I’m not sure which idol he worshipped to get there, but let’s congratulate him! And thank you, Mind of Shoo, for making this spot a weekly thang; we are sincerely glad to have you as a member of our tribe.
Check back Sunday for new prompts. Here’s our weekly schedule — it syncs up with our sister community, the yeah write challenge grid (all times are EST).
The grid is open for submissions at 00:00, Tuesday.
The grid closes at 23:59 on Wednesday night.
Voting is open at 00:00, Thursday. It closes at 23:59 on Thursday night.
The winner’s post will drop at 12:00 pm on Friday.
In the meantime, if you feel like bringing more to Yeah Write, link up with the Moonshine Grid this weekend — no voting, no obligations, just good reading.
Stop living on a prayer — the weekend is almost here!

Wow! Thanks, everyone! You’ve really made my day!
So many great entries this week, and it was nice to see some new faces/read work from new people!
Courtenay, I love your intro posts.
Congrats again on the prize winning mojo, Ron of Mind of Shoo.
Congrats, Bee, on the speakeasy win!
Thanks!
Congrats Bee! And thanks yeah write for the unexpected prize! What a shock. A big thank you to everyone there. And thanks for having me here each week. I enjoy everything about sharing my writing here.
Thank you — and congrats to you, as well!
