HERE ARE THE RULES. All entries must be submitted by e-mail to steven@baldwinwritersgroup.com no later than 11:59:59pm on May, Thursday the 17th. LIMIT ONE ENTRY PER PERSON this month.
Our mini contests are held on a semi-regular basis (approximately every other month) until about August or September of 2012.
You have a limit of 1,000 words to create a short story (sorry, again this month, no essays or poems). Entries must be family friendly. If your entry is too long it will not qualify.
No need to make copies of your work. The winning entry will be read at the meeting.
May's winner will receive bragging rights and a $10 gift card to Panera Bread.
The stories from this contest (winners and non-winners) will be added to previous contest entries and when there are enough to print a book, they will be published. Understand that not every entry will be guaranteed to be in the book, but so long as they meet the contest requirements, the entries will most likely be included. Members will be able to purchase the books at a reduced cost.
You must be present to win, but you don't have to be present to have your story added to the book.
Only members may submit entries to the mini contests.
This month we're accepting entries from all writers belonging to local writers groups.
