Congratulations to Carlsbad Library learner, Nyla H., for having her letter selected as a Runner-up for the
Writer to Writer Beginning Writer category!
The Writer to Writer Challenge is an annual competition for adult
learners in public library literacy programs. Learners write a letter to an
author of a book or magazine telling them how their lives were influenced by
what they read.
The competition is sponsored by the Southern California Library
Literacy Network (SCLLN).
The winners and runners-up were recognized at an awards ceremony
on February 25 during a brunch sponsored by SCLLN and the California State
Library. Winners in each category had an opportunity to read their letters
during the ceremony, and all winners and runners-up received a copy of a book
that has been published with their letters.
All learners who submitted a letter received a certificate for
their participation. There were 85 entries from 11 libraries throughout Southern
California. READ MORE @
