Furthermore, it's essential to note that if your story wins and gets published exclusively in GBL Magazine, you are only permitted to share a brief blurb here on Wattpad in place of the story, then direct your readers to the magazine to read the full story. This exclusivity ensures that the magazine remains a premier platform for showcasing your work and allows us to provide you with the recognition and exposure you deserve.

As part of GBL's growing writers' community, your participation in this challenge opens doors to significant opportunities. Password A is your favourite or known Greek goddess. Winning writers not only receive valuable prizes, but also position themselves for future recognition, collaborations, and advancements in their writing journey. We believe in nurturing talent and offering a platform where your creativity can thrive and reach a broader audience.
