Hello guys,
For the last few days you had the chance to work on Task #2. Some of you said that it's a tough task this time, but based on the posts I think you all did a great job.

Old men as central characters always have a huge potential. That's why I love movies with guys like Clint Eastwood, Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman.

A list with our sponsors , their contributions and the total amount of the prize pool:

---

Sponsor	Contribution
@kubbyelizabeth	8 SBD
@juliakponsford	5 SBD
@oleg326756	5 SBD
@eturnerx	5 SBD
@scrooger	5 SBD
@flemingfarm	10 SBD

@scaredycatguide	5 SBD
@therovingreader	5 SBD
@em3	2 SBD
TOTAL	75 SBD (+10 SBD from me)

The total amount of the prize pool is 75 SBD. It looks fine, however I'd still shoot out to the Steemit community for additional SBD. Why? Because all the participants are putting a lot of efforts to follow after each single task. I've read some amazing stories and posts that has received a decent amount of SBD.

Now, we should announce Task #3.

Task #3: The News

Find a news item that interests you. Using the 'who, what, when, where, why' of the item - and your imagination - rewrite it as a detailed narrated story.

I think that this is an opportunity for you to go after your interests, learn some news and write something that could bring you a decent amount of SBD if done well. I'm mostly referring to the trendy topics. They are often controversial. You'll often see a lot of conversations with people agreeing and disagreeing.

However, you could also write about a shipwreck in the 70s for example and still outperform everyone else :) Enjoy it! :)

If you need further clarification just type your questions in the comments.
