Very fine sentence illustrating a mans conviction. It did seem a bit awkward here; [... plans reject his...] Adding [to] to the sentence would have made it clearer but, then the sentence would have 19 words. I suggest this brief 18 word example for your consideration: "Dr. Daniel Ray, antiwar author, and man of God, plans to reject his 2022 Nobel Prize in literature."

All the best, Yard.

I know you are only supposed to use eighteen words for this story, but I felt like you needed one more, right before reject. Is there a way you can perhaps leave out 'an' in the first line and insert 'to' in the fifth line? I don't think that would alter the meaning in any way and would make the reading a little more conventional. I enjoyed this true story and hope to learn more about it in the future. It is a fascinating topic you've chosen. Best of luck in this contest. MM

Excellent work, but I saw what could be a grammar error, not certain.
to reject, maybe more proper.
I know you must keep word count
You could omit an
Instead begin- Antiwar protest writer and Godworshipper, Dr, Daniel Ray plans to reject his 2022 Nobel Prize in literature later.

Hi there, you've intended to write a whole sentence with eighteen words using all the words provided. I think two words are missing not make the sentence correct, but that would bring you up to twenty words. Good luck.

I see you stuck to the writing prompt rules. I enjoyed reading and you said a lot using only a few words. It takes me at lease 80,000 words to say anything. Thank you for sharing.

The idea that the challenge, along with all the restrictions and needed inclusions, has to be NONFICTION, automatically makes this posting a non-starter as you state that the person and event are both FICTION.

Imaginary or not, one is forced to wonder why the good doctor rejected the prestigious award. I'm guessing that's what you intended to do--give the reader something profound to ponder.

Best of luck at the polls.

Peace, Lee

You have answered the prompt very well. War is terrible and it makes one feel helpless watching the heartbreaking scenes and stories unfolding on TV.
With regards
