#NieldsXVII Story Contest : Week 10

posted April 10, 2015

We got all excited for Spring when we wrote this week’s question. Then it went and got a little wintry on us again. Thanks to those who took part and we’ll be back Monday with a hopefully weather-appropriate new addition to the Story Contest.

Week 10 : Question: What makes you feel like Spring has truly arrived and what Nields song would you play to celebrate?

I know that spring has truly arrived when all the snow has melted and the robins have returned; both of which have already happened in my yard! The song that I play to celebrate the beginning of spring is “Glow In The Dark Plastic Angel,” because of the line about the first day of spring. I play it every year on the spring equinox. It’s one of my annual traditions. I also play “Ash Wednesday” and “Just Like Christopher Columbus” on their respective holidays as well!

#NieldsXVII Story Contest : Week 13

This week’s question was a little out there, and we weren’t disappointed with the responses. The winning answer was both fun and thoughtful. It made us think a little of that line of Shakespeare’s, about music being the food of love. Thanks to the winner and everyone who participated this week. We’ll see you again on Monday!

The number of responses this week was huge!

This week’s winner got the ball rolling for Week 1, so we’re brainstorming for something to send her way other than a download. In the meantime, here’s her awesome answer.
