Okay! Official Contest Time!
I meant to get this post up a couple of days ago, but I am back now and ready to get things rolling! So I am making a series in which I plan on featuring the most creative fiction posts that I find on Steemit. I asked the community to help me name the series. I am making a contest out of it. That basically sums up the last post. You can view it BY CLICKING HERE! I really had no idea what I was doing trying to create a contest, so trial and error time. I had a lot of great suggestions and learned quite a few things from my last post. The engangement was fantastic, which really was the whole point in the first place. You are all awesome!
With some back and forth with a few Steemians, there were some great ideas for a name for my series. I'm going to share a few of the names that were created and then I will discuss the official rules.
After some collaboration with @justinashby, we came up with "Fiction-trails Fiction Addictions"
@teamhumble came up with an idea which I twisted to "Fiction at Full Steem"
"Fine Fiction and Fantastic Fantasies" was suggested by @dbzfan4awhile
I added the word fiction to @comfortgenius idea to make "Amazing Trails of Fiction From A Far"
So let's keep the rules simple.
Create a title for my featured fiction series.
All you have to do is include the word "Fiction" somehow (be creative) and keep with the idea for the series. I know you are all creative and have a ton of ideas, but let's limit the number of entries to two per person. Simply comment your idea(s) below.
I encourage everyone to upvote the other submissions and check this post for late entries.
Let's help support everyone who enters this contest! The winner of the contest will ultimately be decided by me, so don't stress if your comment isn't as popular as someone elses. I may end up changing or altering an idea submited by someone as well. Credit for the idea will still be givin to the person whose idea was modified, as I would not likely have thought of the idea without the original suggestion.
Prizes!!
The winner will be the idea that I decide to go with for my series title, and will recieve 400 trail tokens and 10 SBDs! I will also be letting you guys decide second and third place. The two most popular ideas that are not chosen as the name of the series will be given the second and third place prizes. Second will recieve 200 trail tokens and 5 SBDs and third will recieve 100 trail tokens and 3 SBDs. Just add a reply to the submission that you think should win (not your own submission as it's naturally assumed you want your own entry to win first)! An actual reply will be counted as a vote for that idea (only one reply from each person will be counted, in case a comment sparks a conversation). This is my way of testing community engagement. The submissions with the most comments from different users (and isn't the first place winner) will be givin the second and third place prizes.
The winners will be announced shortly after this post is paid out. So that is seven days to submit your entries. Prizes will be sent shortly after that.
Help me support this post by ReSteeming so more people can enter and vote for their favorites. As I have said before, the engagement is my favorite part of Steemit, so let's see the comments supporting each others ideas.

Hey @sroka87,
Sorry, it was kind of a non-event I think. I'll have a word with @meesterboom and find out. Thanks for the reminder. I was AWOL for a while.
No worries - there were not that many entries, but the ones that I read were good. I expect they are lost and buried in the Blockchain now :S
Nothing is ever lost on the Blockchain - that's the beauty of it :)
Hello! Yeah that was roundabout the time of the hardfork want it. It did kinda peter out somewhat. Might be a challenge rooting the stories out!
