Hm I will shamelessly say my MWC entry! ;-) It was me NOT doing the gloomy memoir,( which I have ample material for and do think has importance/value but also was not expecting the MWC to go so unsubtly stacked in that direction, whole other thing anyway), but trying to find light in a hard/tricky time. It didn't pay off but I am still proud of it. I tried to be sparse/precise, I didn't overwrite, I trimmed it many times. If that sounds egotistical it's because I totally overwrite 99% of the time so I do think I managed something a step above, for me anyway! https://medium.com/the-expat-chronicles/re-entry-coming-back-to-america-during-a-pandemic-1a50098956cb

The piece I was blown away by most recently was another MWC entry by Carol Burt that didn't make the cut for truly inexplicable to me reasons, I think her story is unbelievably inspiring, bravely and boldly told:
