Terry Writing Contest

Calling all writers: The Terry Writing Contest is asking for creative submissions that elicit awareness of the myriad of global issues. The categories are:

(i) UBC community, creative pieces, taking the form (but not limited to) poetry, fiction, literary humour, visual, audio, and/or personal essay;
(ii) UBC community, academic pieces, essays from classes, review/textbook articles, commentary and/or critical analysis; and
(iii) non UBC folk in either the creative or academic categories.

Preferred word length is no more than 2000 words, but we’re not opposed to being dazzled if you do choose to go over. Previously published material (including blog entries) are o.k. as well.

In all categories, we are pleased to have a first, second, and third prize available (that’s nine prizes in total), in the sums of $350, $100, and $50. Prizes will be available as UBC Bookstore giftcards which are valid in all retail locations and can also be used on the store’s website. Also, note that UBC winners may be asked to participate in a UBC Bookstore promotional event.

Contest deadline has been extended to March 31st, 2007
