Contest Deadlines Fast Approaching
Winter is officially here! Time cozy up in our warm pajamas with a steamy beverage and a stack of good books; perhaps even participate in a contest or 2…
We have 2 Regional Contests deadlines coming up pretty quick! The first is for the Adult Bookmark Contest. This contest is open to WMRL card holders who are ages 16 and up. What you need to do is pop by the library for a Bookmark Design Template and create your own original bookmark design for a chance to win a prize! The deadline is Friday, December 7th at 6 p.m.
The second contest is the Short Story and Poetry Contest which is open to WMRL card holders who are ages 16 and up. The limit for writing a Short Story is 2,000 words and the limit for writing a Poem is 50 lines. Winners will not only receive a prize, but will also have the opportunity to participate in a public reading held at the Brandon Public Library in the New Year! Contest Guidelines and Entry Forms can be picked up at the library. The Deadline is Friday, December 7th at 6 p.m.
Are you participating in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month)? There is only 1 week left! Pop by the library or send me an email letting me know how you are doing! Participants who reach the half way mark will receive a prize! Make it all the way to 50,000 words (Adults) or 20,000 words/10 pages (13 and under) and you will receive another prize!
