Tampa Book Buzz

wordsmith from the tampa writers alliance

There was a large envelope in the mail this week. It wasn’t ticking…my address wasn’t written in block letters with no return address in the top lefthand corner..there was no visible white powder on it. Inhale deeply, squint eyes and rip it open….

My copy of Wordsmith 2005 had arrived!

Wordsmith 2005 contains winning entries in the categories of fiction, non-fiction, novel, poetry, scripts and the Dr. Ed Hirshburg Award for Excellence in Florida Writing, along with the best of the remaining submissions from the Tampa Writers Alliance 2004 Annual Writing Contest. This is Wordsmith’s 16th Edition. (from the back cover)

So far, I’ve only had a chance to thumb through it, but it’s going right to the top of my bedside table stack o’ books.
