Hi Everyone!

Have you ever had a memory of something that plays over and over in your head, that you just can't get off your mind?
That story someone tells you over coffee that shocks you in a way that you don't know whether to laugh or to cry?
...And you just have to spill the beans to get it off your chest?

Well, this week I heard some of the most memorable stories that will stay with me forever.

Welcome to the winner(s) announcement of our very first Coffee Stories Series; a creative writing initiative for you to #SpillTheBeans

In response to topic:

🥇You think that was tough, last time I went Skiing... I Died!

Something didn’t make sense…. If he died on the slopes of a French Ski Resort, how was he now telling me this story?

🥈The shine in his eyes

But what still strikes me to this day, and it's been a few weeks already, are the last words he uttered as I walked away.

Read full story to discover those last words and be touched emotionally.

🥉Lessons over Kori-Kori| Stories from My Go-Getter Mentor

My mentor wanted something new in his life and he knew that he needed to get away from his home in order to experience new and exciting things.

Read full story for inspiration through the mindset of a go getter.


All stories are still active for voting, or if you'd like to tip the authors.


Cinnamon Cup Coffee thanks everyone who participated in this writing initiative. This was a close contest, but how do you top a story of someone who died and came back to tell the tale?
Well done winners, and all!


The next writing prompt/topic will be posted.
Please keep an eye out for it.
Our weekly Coffee Curation Compilation
will be presented on Friday.

Congratulations to the Coffee Stories @vanbliss Winner!
But I have a question about something else ...

Hi @cinnccf and @millycf1976
Today I posted my post for the Coffee Stories Contest, which was somehow inflicted by a bot? Unless the Cinnamon Cup Coffee Community Guide did so. Then who? Although my posts I do everything myself and I use only high-quality and unique materials. Where does this bot come from and who allows it to do this? I understand. that this legacy has remained on the Hive platform since Steemit, but these bots should be removed or reset so that they do not harm the platform and the community where we are as members. This has already happened on the Golos and Steemit platforms, where flag wars later happened, and many authors and bloggers left there.
I have this inscription above my post:
This content was muted by Cinnamon Cup Coffee moderators for not following community guidelines.
And the post itself was minus and closed, blocked?
Link to my post:

And I did everything on time for the competition ...))

And why was the post turned off?
The post did not pass, and okay.
Kind of weird...))
