Sally Clark was awarded 1st in the Tennessee Mountain Writers contest for "Boogie Man Jam" (Children's Literature), Honorable Mention fin Poetry for "Crop Rotation", and 2nd for "Cow Jumps Over the Moon." If you want to know more about contests, talk to Sally.
I met a guy in prison this week with the actual first name of Emzee who has written 6 fantasy fiction novels of 500 hand written pages each. I haven't read any of his writing, but I spoke with him long enough to believe that he is a real writer and not blowing smoke. I will pose some questions to him - what would you like ask him about writing in prison?
e.g. How is it even possible to write a long novel by hand? Do you have any ideas about trying to get a publisher? Do your story lines have anything to do with the environment you live in ? (a maximum security prison in Texas).
Add some questions to my list.
Also, our next meeting is on or about June 16th. If you have a program idea please let me know.
