Workshop Rules

The workshop will take place on September 25th at a location TBD. It will start at 2:00 pm and run for approximately three hours. One week before the day of the workshop, we will announce the three best submissions; these will be the works discussed at the workshop on September 25th. If your submission is not chosen for the first workshop, we still encourage you to attend as your peers could certainly use your feedback on their work.


Submissions are due on Saturday, September 11, 2010 at 11:59PM.

Entrance Fee is two dollars, payable to the mailbox of Dr. Jennifer Wingard, Rm 205 Roy Cullen Building. Place the entrance fee in an envelope WITH YOUR NAME and submit it to Dr. Wingard's mailbox.

If your piece is chosen, you will be charged a twenty dollar workshop fee.

There is no fee for attending the workshop if you do not wish to submit your work.

Please keep your submission to under fifteen pages.

Both prose and poetry are accepted.

You may submit more than one piece, but you must pay a separate submission fee and only one of your submissions may be chosen to be workshopped (e.g., even if two of your pieces receive the highest marks, only one of those pieces will be workshopped in order to give other writers the benefit of the workshop).

There will be three winning submissions to be decided by a panel of Sigma Tau Delta members.

Chosen submissions will be able to say that their piece has been workshopped by the Sigma Tau Delta International English Honor Society.

In the event that a winner does not pay the workshop fee, alternates will be announced.




Winners will be announced on Saturday, September 18th via the page on this blog entitled "Workshop Submissions." The winning three pieces will be published there so all workshop attendees will be able to print and make comments on the winning submissions. There will also be hard copies of the winning submissions available in the English office. We look forward to reading your submissions and seeing you all at the workshop on September 25th!
