Every Tuesday, you have a chance to win a membership to Steem Basic Income, SBI, at the Freewrite House.
Try to win one, my friends. An everlasting vote on your posts is nothing to sneeze at.
We want to make it super easy for you. Your task is to tell us in the comment section about one - or more- freewrites of others you have read in the last couple of days you really liked. Yup, not your own!!
Remember the comment must be at least 50 words long - no upper limit 🤪
See the rules below for details.
In an ideal world, you also give that person a nice upvote - but we are not going to check on that.
So, to be entered into the drawing, tell us about a freewrite you really liked and why. Choose from the last couple of days so others can go, visit inspired by your description, and leave a vote.
Win, Win, Win!!!

Me gusta mucho este proyecto por la cantidad de autores que están surgiendo. Hoy quiero presentar a ustedes a @corderito me parece que es un escritor genial. Siempre apoya al proyecto desde sus inicios en la versión en español y en el Spanish Freewrite que les dejo aquí podrán ver como captó la esencia del vivir cotidiano de un obrero que llega a casa después de una jornada de duro trabajo. Verán como enlazó su visión al tema "baño".

I really like this project because of the number of authors that are emerging. Today I want to introduce you to @corderito I think he is a great writer. Always support the project from its beginnings in the Spanish version and in the Spanish Freewrite that I leave here you can see how it captured the essence of the daily life of a worker who comes home after a day of hard work. You will see how he linked his vision to the theme "bath".

Thank you for participating. So much appreciated!.
Gracias por participar. ¡Muy apreciado !.
es para mi un placer, es una excelente inciativa /
It's a pleasure for me, it's an excellent initiative
https://steemit.com/freewrite/@msicc/the-core-values-i-tought-and-still-teach-my-kids-5-minute-freewrite
Today I would like to nominate @msicc for his #freewrite on today's prompt: core values.
I just finished reading a couple of today's #freewrites and I ran across this one from @msicc. He has the perfect recipe for teaching his children a list of core values. Actually, it's like he copied them from my parents. Of course my dad was in the Army so "Yes Sir" and "No Sir" were mandatory. I'm not sure if that is still taught, I don't hear it much in my everyday life anymore. Great job on this #freewrite @msicc
thanks a lot for nominating my freewrite 🙂

Thank you for reading and recommending one of our newer freewriters!!
I would like to nominate @malloryblythe for Portrait of a Neckbeard
https://steemit.com/comedy/@malloryblythe/portrait-of-a-neckbeard
What a glorious piece she has created in five or so minutes! She starts with the room, sheets torn from bare mattress, psychedelic screen savers and wads of used, crushed tissues—a scene I could see immediately. Felt even my olfactory senses were turning on merely looking around the place!
From his “feminazi” sociology professor and dead-end job at the Hobby Lobby, it’s about one of those living with Mom at thirty!
Funny and sad and entirely relatable, and you won’t be sorry you’ve read. Thank Mallory for the intro to incel culture—that is, if you don’t already have one living in the basement ;)
3 @kimberlylane
You found a great one!!!
https://steemit.com/weekendfreewrite/@felt.buzz/talking-pencils-whatever-next-you-big-twat-a-weekend-freewrite
This story is great! I love the quirky way that he tells the completely silly-fun story with such realism. @felt.buzz has a way of writing that makes me smile so often. Just reading through them feels almost like tripping through a tale that you'd hear while touring the WIlly Wonka Chocolate factory. I feel a hint of Roald Dahl in his characters and the way he injects humor and yet some sort of believable but crazy situations. I think he definitely deserves to be a freewrite favorite!
4 @eroticabian
Agreed!! His writing makes me smile all the time!
The prompt "suffers in silence" brought out a lot of real stories. The dirty, dark side of people and what we are capable of.
@byn's Family Traditions took me through the very common relationship abuse, the physical and verbal kind. Most, for many reasons will justify it, sweep it under the rug until the tipping point. And then the decision to take action. The story had me thinking, what if it was me?
The other FreeWrite I would like to highlight is @eaglespirit's Eris, Goddess of Discord. First, the selfie drew me in. And the story that followed, made me wonder how many times had this Goddess been messing with me. So beautiful but I'd rather not have her visit.
5 @kaerpediem
Both are extraordinary stories. Thank you for the nominations!!
I managed to read several freewrites this week. I wish I had time to read all of them, every day! I appreciate it when others nominate freewrites right here, because it's like a shortcut to some really great reading material. Anyway, I would like to mention a few. https://steemit.com/freewrite/@freedomtowrite/core-values-5-minute-and-go by @freedomtowrite was a completely unexpected take on the prompt. At least, I sure wasn't expecting that angle, and I really liked the story.
https://steemit.com/freewrite/@honeydue/a-legacy-of-nightmares-weekend-freewrite really captured my attention. The idea of a pencil that won't go away, and draws scary things, is something I would never think up all on my own. It's great to know @honeydue can think them up! And then there is @byn, who has been writing wonderful stories about her husband and family all week. You should go read them all, if you haven't already. This one really cracked me up: https://steemit.com/freewrite/@byn/saved-by-the-bath-the-very-true-story-of-how-a-bath-saved-me-from-marrying-the-wrong-guy, but they are all good!

So glad that you found some time to read!! How is the deck coming along?
The front deck is all done except for the handrail on the stairs. The wood for the back deck stairs and railing is nearly all stained. I expect the carpenters to return early next week.
You are making good progress!!
Thank you so much! I loved writing this one!
I would like to nominate @msicc for his freewrite on core values that he teaches his kids. They are simple values in life but each one is very important. The last one on his list blew me away, and I don't want to spoil it, so make sure you go check it out.
