From a Will Rogers Writers’ Conference press release:
Entries are being received for the 2007 Will Rogers Writing Contest.
Sponsored by the National Society of Newspaper Columnists, the contest is open to writers everywhere who are interested in the writings of Will Rogers.
Authors of entries that best reflect the Rogers’ style of writing will be awarded cash prizes. The first place winner will receive an award of $200. The prize for second place is $100 and third place, $50.
An entry consists of an essay of 500 to 750 words (maximum) written in the style of Will Rogers. Detailed rules and information may be found at the NSNC Web site or at www.willrogersok.org (click on What’s New? and scroll down to the September 2007 newsletter). The deadline for receipt of entries is October 1.
The Wyoming Arts Council believes that experiencing the arts should be accessible for all, including people with mental and/or physical disabilities, older adults, military/veterans, people living in institutions and those who lack access to the arts due to geographic isolation, cultural difference and economic hardship.
