The Auburn Arts Commission, Inc., along with co-sponsors MJ’s Bookmark (formerly Waanders’ Bookmark) and The Evening Star, have sponsored a Snowbound Writers’ Contest since 1994. A reception for winners and publication of winning entries are two features of the contest. In 2006, the AAC members voted to publish some of the Snowbound Writers’ Contest into a booklet, suitable for distribution.
2015:
Prose: first place, Renee Shipe of Hudson for “Waking Up;” second place, Rebecca Stupeck of Auburn for “Impressions;” and third place, Megan Moss of Auburn for “The Last Cookie.”
