Dear readers and writers,
The postmark deadline for the third annual Missouri Review Audio & Video Competition, with its $4,500 in prize money, is Dec. 1. We’ve structured our categories to allow writers of all types and experience levels to participate. Writers may enter the Voice-Only Literature category—all you need is a great manuscript of fiction, poetry, or creative nonfiction, audio software that’s readily available, and a microphone—no need to fuss with music or other sound tracks. And it’s a great way to get recognized, especially since the universe of entrants is significantly less than our annual Jeffrey E. Smith Editors’ Prize contest.
Those more venturesome or experienced with sound may enter the Narrative Essay or Documentary categories. Also, this year, there is a video category. One winner from the video category will be featured at the prestigious True/False film festival in Columbia, Missouri. We also offer a “Best Student Entry” for each category.
Every entrant receives a one-year digital subscription to The Missouri Review. Each entry is $24. For more information and entry form, go to http://missourireview.com/contest/audio_competition.php.
Best wishes,
The editors of The Missouri Review

NW Documentary practices, teaches, and shares the art of non-fiction
storytelling. We illuminate important stories that would otherwise be
lost or overlooked, provide experiential learning opportunities, and
generate better understanding, appreciation, and dialog within our
community.
NW Documentary has become a center for documentary storytelling. Since
2003, NW Documentary's programs have reached half a million people.
Our original productions have garnered prestigious awards, and have
been shared in schools, museums, cultural centers, as well as
broadcast. Our workshops have trained more than 200 new storytellers,
creating hundreds of original documentaries, which are shared in
public events and special presentations.
Our newest project is the creation of a Documentary Resource Center
and Lending Library within our organization that will enhance our
community education programs and serve anyone with an interest in
storytelling. To assist in building this Resource Center we're asking
documentary film makers to donate a copy of their work, either in DVD
or VHS format, to the center. We're happy to provide prepaid envelopes
to offset the cost of your gift. In addition, it's tax deductible!
