Write 300 Words for a Chance to Win $100 In The I ❤️ African Literature Writing Contest

Brittle Paper has launched a writing contest to give you a chance to say just what you love about African literature.

Here is how it works:

Imagine African literature as a romantic partner—boyfriend, girlfriend, sidechick, main squeeze, wife, husband, whatever. It is your 6th year anniversary, but you’ve been going through a rough patch for while now. Things haven’t been as rosy as it once was. You’re determined to put thing right by re-affirming your love—with just 300 words!

The contest is open to everyone: old, youthful, aspiring writer, seasoned writer, African, non-African, etc. If you read and love African literature, take this chance to say why.

To participate:

Follow Brittle Paper on Twitter @brittlepaper (include a screen capture to let Brittle paper know you followed them)

Submit to brittlecontest@gmail.com. Include your name, address, a phone number, a short bio, and a photograph of yourself.

That’s it!

Entries will be open from July 4 to July 15. The top five will be announced on July 18th. Readers will then have a chance to vote for their favorite.

The winner will be announced on July 31.

Good luck!
