The Island Literary Awards will be more of a gala affair for authors when they return in 2025, according to the P.E.I. Writers' Guild. There should also be a new sponsorship model in place.
When Norman Ho moved to P.E.I., he was introduced to the Anne of Green Gables series. He was so inspired by Lucy Maud Montgomery's poetic and descriptive language that he wrote a short story, which recently won an Island Literary Award.
