07/01/2011: "The Written Word"

The San Juan County Fair is looking for Written Word submissions for the 2011 fair. Date for submissions is July 10th. The booth will be facilitated this year by the Wildfire Women Writers (WWW) group.

“We are hoping that people from all the islands who are inspired to write will submit this year,” said Cady Davies of the WWW. “We have contacted the libraries on San Juan, Lopez and Orcas and set them up as drop off points.”

Other ways to submit are by email to islandwriters@gmx.com or mail to Written Word, San Juan County Fair, PO Box 1094, FH, WA 98250.

“It’s important that all submissions follow the correct format, as it is disheartening when we cannot include a submission due to incorrect format or incomplete information.” Davies continued. “We encourage anyone who wants to share their work to do so. For those who receive first place prizes, there will be an opportunity to read their piece on stage, only if they wish, of course.”

The rules for submission can be found at these websites; www.islandwriters.weebly.com or www.sanjuancountry fair.org.
