And the winners of our Short Story Contest are…
December 9, 2024
Every November is National Novel Writing Month. Each year, the NaNoWriMo nonprofit organization hosts an international novel-writing challenge to promote creative writing. Once again, the UT Libraries and the Judith Anderson Herbert Writing Center joined in the fun by hosting our own short story contest.
Students dropped by our five-hour “write-in” on the evening of November 13. Tutors from the Writing Center were on hand to provide guidance and support, and we revealed our three writing prompts:
We’re pleased to announce the winners:
- 1st place: “Devil Apartment Complex” by Eric Yang
- 2nd place: “The Mourning Dove” by Anonymous
- 3rd place: [untitled] by Amanda Hubbard
Honorable mention:
- “Eleven” A.M. by Laura Dixson
