I made this announcement on Facebook today:
๐๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฒ ๐๐๐ฐ๐ฌ! The Southeastern Writers Association celebrated their FIFTY year anniversary at their conference last weekend (Go SWA!), and announced the winners of their annual writing contest last night. This year, they offered ten contest categories for entrants to submit their poetry, flash fiction, short stories, and novel chapters. I submitted stories to three categories and ๐ฐ๐จ๐ง ๐ ๐ข๐ซ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐๐ฅ๐๐๐ ๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ฐ๐จ: ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ฐ๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐๐ฉ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฅ๐๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ ๐๐ก๐จ๐ซ๐ญ ๐ ๐ข๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง, ๐๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐ข๐๐ซ๐จ๐๐จ๐ฌ๐ฆ ๐๐ฐ๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐ ๐ฅ๐๐ฌ๐ก ๐ ๐ข๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง.
Thank you, SWA and donors for the lovely certificates and cash prizes! Thank you, Dr. Amy R. Wethington, for being an excellent contest coordinator and ensuring the integrity of the annual contest through your blind judging process! And happy congratulations to all the winners for boldly submitting your creative works and being honored by this long-standing writers’ association and their distinguished judges! Cheers!
