Good morning!
-- It's that time of year again. Thanks to all who helped last year.
Read the entire email including the time restrictions...got a late start due to grad school, my grandfather's passing, and life during COVID.
Please respond to me directly - no reply all.
Best,
Carletta

The road to local, regional and national recognition starts with submissions reviewed by qualified individuals in various areas. Volunteer jurors are needed now!

Specifically, we are seeking writers of all kinds (fiction writers, poets, playwrights, journalists, etc), editors, members of not-for-profit literary groups, university faculty in the literary arts, graduate writing students, and high school English teachers.

Trying is an honorable failure. Make sure you are DOING all you can everyday!
Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so..
Love the people who treat you right.
Forget about the ones who don't.
Believe that everything happens for a reason.
If you get a chance , TAKE IT!
If it changes your life , LET IT!
Nobody said it would be easy...
They just promised it would be worth it!
