Attention Barton County, Missouri poets, short story writers and essayists! The deadline for submissions to the BCPaW 2009 anthology project has been extended to June 30, 2009.
The submission window was originally set to close on March 31st, but as of this writing (3/19/09), surprisingly few submissions have been received. We know that there are a great many talented authors and poets living and working in Barton County, which leads us to the conclusion that the we here at BCPaW need to do a better job of outreach. We are therefore extending the deadline and redoubling our efforts to spread the word about BCPaW and the anthology.
Please help spread the word! Tell every Barton County resident writer you know about the BCPaW Anthology Project, and send them to this website. You can download a PDF copy of the anthology announcement and complete submission guidelines here – please print copies for you friends, and feel free to post them in your office, workplace, school, clubhouse, the gym, etc. That would be a big help! If you have other ideas for helping to publicize this event, please email Chris Tannlund at ArtsCouncilofBartonCounty@Yahoo.com. Thank you!
