Guideposts Writing Contest for Writers' Workshop

Faith by Lili Vieira de Carvalho Creative Commons

The Christian Writers Marketplace has deets on a Guideposts contest.

Fifteen writers will get a free week at the Guideposts Writers Workshop October 13 - 17 to study up on how to write for Guideposts.

Correction: The workshop is in Rye, New York and includes travel costs. Sounds like a great deal.

Submit a story (2000 words or less) by June 24, 2008 and explain a life-changing experience where faith made a difference.
