I am curating fiction posts, sharing worthy pieces from Minnows across the Steem platform on behalf of the @minnowsupport project. Each Friday I will present five posts and upvote them from the @msp-curation account. 1 pick will be resteemed from the @minnowsupport account. Upon payout, I'll share the SBD earned from these curation posts with the featured authors.

My first selection this week is from @alheath who submitted 'A Coward's Exit' to the latest @thewritersblock art prompt writing contest. The story is a gripping tragic tale about loss and the courage to continue in the face of adversity. Click the link below for a good read.

My second choice is 'A Conspiracy in Stone' by @scottcharlton. He writes a fantasy yarn filled with swords, warriors, and fantastical beasts. The story centers on Constantia's last moments, mortally wounded in battle. Click below to read more.

Next up we have a @steemmonsters tale called 'The Dragon in the Pit' written by @chrisroberts. The story involves a Chromatic Dragon who preys on the poor kingdom of Lyveria. The High Order of the Shield, brave knights and paladins, answer the call to rid the kingdom of the greedy dragon. Read more below.
