Writers Workshop Submissions deadline: June 24, 2008

…in Rye, New York, at the famous GUIDEPOSTS WRITERS WORKSHOP. Ptolemy Tompkins, Rick Hamlin, Amy Wong, Edward Grinnan, Celeste McCauley and Colleen Hughes will teach you everything they know about writing and editing great GUIDEPOSTS stories. You could be the next Sue Monk Kidd (class of 1978). We’ll pick 15 of you to join us at picturesque Wainwright House October 13 to 17. Have a story you always wanted to write? Get started today!

HOW TO APPLY Submit an original, unpublished, true first-person story in 2,000 words or less, typewritten and double-spaced, about an experience that changed you. Show us how faith made a difference. Or you can ghostwrite for someone else. Tell us about yourself and your writing experience.
