Well, folks, last week's Word-of-Mouth Wednesday may have been too difficult.
This week's word-of-mouth Wednesday challenge is to share the word about Stacker News Fiction Month with the rest of the world. Go find your fiction forums and writer's groups, share the contest with your friends who dabble in stories, or just post about it on other social media. I'm particularly interested in ballsy efforts to get good writers to post a story here.
Clearly, the bounty needs to be bigger! So, I'm not going to award a winner for last week, and instead I'm going to double this week's bounty for the same task. (I did zap @deSign_r a little extra because they at least posted something on X and nostr!)
This is your call to take a leap and try to convince a writer you love to post on SN.
I'll be judging the prize based on the quality of the attempt not on whether you are successful or not, so take a leap, reach out to some writer you admire and ask them to participate in the Stacker News Fiction Month (guidelines here: #1043076). Post your evidence in a comment below.
Most exciting attempt before high noon Texas time on Wednesday, August 13, 2025 gets the 20k sats bounty.
(if there aren't any really exciting attempts, we may have to just roll it over into the next week)
