Writers' Night of Fright

StokerFest

Writers’ Night of Fright is a celebration of author Bram Stoker that showcases the original written works of Adult and High School patrons. Interested patrons may submit horror flash-fiction (500 words maximum), micro-fiction, or poetry to present at the program.

Not a fan of presentations or writing, but love all-things spooky? Not a problem! You can still register and attend to listen to stories that are bound to keep you up at night.

Dress your best! Come and mingle with others in vampire or vampire hunter attire.

This program is intended for Adults and High School patrons only. Registration is required.

Submission Guidelines:

Submissions may not exceed 500 words and may not contain any explicit language and/or content. To submit, please email your original work as a Word document to writingsubmissions@forsythpl.org by Monday, October 23. In the Word document, please include the following at the top of the first page:

1. The title
2. Your library card number
3. The name you would like to have associated with your work (this can be your given name or a pen name, if preferred)

Due to time constraints, we will have a limited number of presenters. By submitting your work, you agree to let the library print and distribute copies for this program and for future use in the library collection (with appropriate credit to all authors).
