Calling All Writers! Medium is giving away $100,000 for you to Write.

Featuring Judges Natalie Portman, Roxane Gay, Saeed Jones, Susan Orlean, and more
Medium is hosting an essay writing contest, and we want you (yes, YOU!) to enter. The Medium Writers Challenge is a chance for you to get creative, turn your thoughts into a great essay, and win some prize money, too.
Entering the challenge is easy: Just write on one — or more! — of four writing prompts and include the associated tag when publishing your story on Medium. A panel of judges including Eve L. Ewing, Imani Perry and Roxane Gay will review the entries and pick a winner.
The challenge, which will take place over the course of four weeks, is a chance for you to share your best ideas with an esteemed panel of judges and millions of Medium readers — plus, an opportunity to win $50,000.
Here’s how it will work. We’re providing four guiding prompts: Reentry, Death, Work, and Space. Each is accompanied by a descriptive paragraph to help you get your wheels turning — but don’t feel confined. Your experiences or perspectives might take you down other roads that are well within the parameters of the prompt.
