Peru, Nebraska - The Peru State College Writer's Guild is currently holding the 2017-2018 Creative
Writing Contest. Peru State students are welcome to enter poetry, creative fiction
and creative non-fiction.
Quentin Victor, president of the Writer's Guild, writes, "As this is a contest, the
winners in each category will receive Amazon Gift Cards from the Writer’s Guild. The
works will be assessed by an independent judge to avoid bias."
The Guild asks student to send no more than two entries per person per category to
pscwritersguild@gmail.com. Students may submit six submissions in total.
Each entry should be 3000 words or less.
Victor continues, "This rule is flexible, more for the sake of the length of the Journal
into which the entries will be entered. We want to fit as many of your entries in
as possible."
Victor also advises that entries keep the content of the entries to a reasonable level
of appropriateness, "We do not know the potential age of the journal’s readers. Also,
this rule is open to interpretation, but the general rule of thumb is PG-13."
The contest deadline is January 16th.
