 Entries for The Linda Flowers Literary Award Competition due by August 15
The Humanities Council invites original entries of fiction or nonfiction
for The Linda Flowers Literary Award. Submissions should engage readers’ understanding of the “humanistic apprehension,” bringing to light “real men and women having to make their way” in the face of “changes and loss, triumphs and disappointments.” Entries are expected to draw particular North Carolina connections and/or memories.

at Appalachian State University, received the 2007 award for her nonfiction essay “The Pick-Up Line.” Vogel’s entry was among more than fifty received from across the southeast and as far away as California. Learn more about The Linda Flowers Literary Award.
