Relatos de Altura: 3rd Mountain Micro-story Competition
57 micro-stories. This is how the reception of entries for the competition has ended.
Quality, originality, creativity... The jury has a hard time selecting the two winning micro-stories this year. I can vouch for that.
First of all: drum roll.
"And the Winner is"or are. We are pleased to announce the two selected texts that will receive the competition prizes (see the bases).
- FIRST PRIZEJuan Peláez Gómez / THE WAY DOWN
- SECOND PRIZEJavier García Ruiz / GR 11
On the other hand, as in the last edition, we will collect all the micro-stories in a book to give them the presence they deserve and to correspond in some way to the care that all the participants have put into them. We will also be sharing them here and on the newsletter weekly.
On behalf of the whole Travesía Pirenaica team, we would like to thank you, because the Community is what gives meaning to what we do.
