The deadline for the Palouse Writers Guild’s newest event, a Christmas writing contest, is Nov. 1.

There is no minimum age to enter the short-story contest, and participants need not be members of the group.

Winners will be announced at 6 p.m. Dec. 3 during the Guild’s TGIO (Thank God it’s Over) get-together celebrating the end of National Novel Writing Month. Prizes include a Christmas fruitcake for first place, a leg lamp ornament for second place and Grinch pencils for third place.

The guild, which bills itself as “a networking resource for Palouse writers,” offers a variety of writing contests throughout the year.

Contest rules and submission guidelines are at palousewritersguild.org.
