Each year, Shawnee College faculty member Dr. Ryan Thornsberry conducts the contest to offer young authors in the region a creative outlet.
The contest consists of three categories of writing which are judged in two divisions: 9th/10th and 11th/12th grades.
The categories in the contest include:
Short Fiction: This category includes short stories or excerpts from longer works. Entries should be no more than 1,000 to 1,500 words. One entry per student is allowed.
