Do You Have A Story To Tell?

New and Experienced Writers Invited to Participate In Contest

Following the lauded 2007 release of Quilting Patches of Life, Affirming Faith, a Christian organization based in Rochester Hills, Michigan, has announced its 2008 writing contest. This free contest, open to Christians of all denominations, invites beginning and experienced writers to offer personal stories for consideration in a new project. Winning entries will be included in a compilation book designed to uplift people in their faith walks.

Each entry should be 1,000-1,500 words and give a specific “life lesson” learned through a difficult circumstance, a high point in the writer’s life, or an everyday experience. Winning entries will receive a free copy of the completed work due out later this year and a certificate of award recognizing their achievement.

“We all have a story,” Affirming Faith founder Lori Wagner stated. “I can learn from your experiences and be encouraged, and I hope that I can encourage you with mine.”

Applications detailing submission guidelines and contest rules are available through the website at www.affirmingfaith.com, or can be mailed upon request by calling (248) 909-5735. All entries must be postmarked by July 31, 2008.
