Entries now being accepted for 2024 Poul Anderson Creative Writing Contest
By Sora O'Doherty

The Friends of the Orinda Library announced the start of the 2024 Poul Anderson Creative Writing Contest, open to all students who reside and/or attend high school in Orinda.
Entry Categories are Science Fiction/Fantasy, Essay/Memoir/Biography, Poetry, and Short Story. Students may submit one entry in any of the four categories for a total of not more than three entries. The submission deadline is midnight on Friday, April 12.
Entries will be judged by a panel of local judges who are involved professionally in reading, writing, or publishing. Awards will go to the works judged best. There will not necessarily be one award in each category.
Up to four winners will each be awarded $500 prizes at the end of the school year, underwritten by the Friends of the Orinda Library. The winning entries will be posted on the Friends' website.
The contest is named in honor of the late Poul Anderson, a popular science-fiction writer and Orinda resident, who was a true friend to the community for 40 years.
Entries must be submitted as PDFs or Word attachments to an email sent along with a contest entry form to contest@friendsoftheorindalibrary.org. No Google Doc or Dropbox links will be accepted.
Any questions about the contest may be submitted by email to contest@friendsoftheorindalibrary.org.
Entry forms may be obtained from
