The winner of the 2020 Story of the Year, along with the $50 prize and enshrinement in the Hall of Fame, is:
Your Pills by Jennifer L. Freed
We were blessed by Jennifer’s contributions to the site this year. She won three Story of the Month awards in four months (a feat made that much more remarkable by Yash Seyedbagheri’s accomplishment of the same thing later in the year). Your Pills was her strongest piece, centred around the beautifully poetic and hopeful turn of phrase “You take the sky / into your body / with your morning tea”.
Honourable mentions go to Cracked Lives by Yash Seyedbagheri, Extra Time by David Holloway, and Beautiful Things by Jennifer L. Freed.
Congratulations to all. I thoroughly enjoy this wonderful cite. Thank you.
A well-deserved award.
Congratulations, Jennifer. Well-deserved!
