#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 9

Since we had a repeat winner last week we felt justified in picking 2 winners for this one (even though one of those was also a repeat winner). The usual tie-breaker was no help because all 3 of us agreed both of these stories were pretty great.

We opened this week’s question up a bit and got a lot of interesting responses. It was hard to pick just one, but we managed. We say it each week, but it really is great to read each story. Keep them coming. We’ll see you again on Monday. Thanks!
