Last month, we asked you to share your favorite story you’ve ever written — we hoped it would give you an opportunity to showcase some of your best work (and give all of us some great things to read). What ensued was a flurry of high-quality, downright awesome Medium posts. Some shared deeply personal essays about coping with the loss of a dog, while others shared stories that should probably only be read in incognito mode. But what we found most interesting is the throughline: Each writer delivered their own authentic voice and style.

Below, you’ll find six stories we thought were awesome. Thank you to those who shared their work with us. And to the readers… enjoy! You won’t be disappointed.

I have two faves and both just tumbled out of me, unbidden and unbridled. A rare and delicious experience.
The first is an ode to Tom Waits and it makes me so happy, but it may be because I love Tom. The second is about my kids and is very close to my heart. —
