Annual
USU Scribendi Creative Writing Contest announces call
for submissions
Utah State University's department of English invites
students across campus to enter their creative work
in the annual Scribendi Creative Writing Contest.
"All students are welcome to participate, no matter
their college or department," said Anne Shifrer, contest
director. "While the deadline for submission is next
February, we want students to start thinking now about
possible topics and to start writing."
The deadline for final submission is Feb. 3, Shifrer
said. Judging will then take place and winners will
be notified in March.
Graduates and undergraduates compete separately in
the following categories: poetry, short fiction and
non-fiction essay.
ASUSU has supplied cash awards for each category, and
winning entries will be published in a hard copy edition
of Scribendi as well as online.
The Thad and Jenny Box Creative Writing Scholarship
will also be awarded to one of the competitors in the
contest.
For submission instructions and more information, go
to the English department website and select Creative
Writing Contest from the menu. You may also contact
Anne Shifrer at annes@cc.usu.edu.
