Wilton Writes! 3rd Annual writer’s contest sponsored by the Wilton 2nd Saturday Writer’s Club
Wilton Public Library is excited to announce our 3rd Annual Writer’s Contest. This contest is open to anyone who wants to write a short story, essay, poem, or anything else that is 500 words or less on any topic. If you need help with a topic, stop in the library and we’ll be happy to help! So here are the rules.
- All works must be 500 words or less and are open to any topic.
- All works must be submitted to the library by April 1st. Judging will start on April 8th.
- When submitting your work, specify if you are an adult (18 years old or older) or a youth (under 18 years old and/or still in high school)
- Submit 2 copies of your work. 1 copy must have your name and age on it and your second copy must not have any identifying information to keep judging as neutral as possible.
- All works must be original and unique.
- There will be only on submission per person accepted.
- To submit, please stop in Wilton Public Library and give your copies to a staff member, email the library your work at wiltonlibrary@wrlsweb.org, or mail your work to: Wilton Public Library 400 East St Rm 102, Wilton, WI 54670
- If you’d like to photocopy your work, please submit in person and a staff member will assist you.
There will be 2 prizes per age group for prizes. 1st prize is a writer’s package with $25 cash prize. 2nd prize is a writer’s package. Writer’s packages consist of tools that a writer can use to hone their craft.
Submissions can be in English or Spanish.
If you have any questions, please stop in the library or call us at 608-435-6710. We’ll be happy to help you out!
Good luck and happy writing!
