Attention young writers, there is only one week left to submit your poems and short stories for the annual Write @ Your Library contest.

The 2015 Write @ Your Library creative writing contest is open to students in grades 7 to 12 in Grey and Bruce Counties with valid library cards.  Submissions may be made in either French or English.

Winning entries will receive cash prizes of up to $100 and have their work published in the Write for 2015 anthology.  First place winners in each category will be published in the July edition of Mosaic.  An awards ceremony with readings of the winning entries will be held in June.

Submissions are also sought for the cover design of the 2015 anthology.  The winning entry will receive a $100 cash prize.

Guidelines for the writing and design contests can be picked up at your local public library or downloaded from the Owen Sound & North Grey Union Public Library’s website: www.owensound.library.on.ca.  To see previous winners, check out earlier editions of the Write for anthology at your public library.

Submissions must be emailed to Nadia Danyluk, Youth Services Librarian at the Owen Sound & North Grey Union Public Library no later than Friday, May 15, 2015. You can contact Nadia at ndanyluk@owensound.library.on.ca.

This event is coordinated by the Owen Sound & North Grey Union Public Library, and is enabled through the participation and sponsorship of Mosaic, The United Way of Bruce Grey, the Centre culturel du Jardin découvertes, Bruce County Public Library, Grey Highlands Public Library, Hanover Public Library, Meaford Public Library and West Grey Public Library.
