 “Gumbo for the Soul” Publications announces the establishment of “Gumbo for the Soul” Young Writers Division.

GFTS is issuing a call to youth and children - 10-17 years old - for submissions of essays for possible publication in a new anthology, authored entirely by young people.

Proceeds from GFTS anthologies by and for young readers will benefit the Gumbo for the Soul Scholarship Awareness Program. 

Though only 100 of the submitters’ works will be accepted for publication, all will be eligible for a random chance to win one of two $500 scholarship grants.

Titled “Gumbo for the Soul: If I Were Oprah, I’d …” (©2009 GFTS), the book will be published, released and presented as a gift to Oprah Winfrey on her birthday January 29, 2010. 

 

Guidelines and more info available by joining our group via email:

Submission Requirements:

Submitter must be between 10 and 17 years of age (proof of age required)

$25.00 non-refundable submission fee

Scholarship winners and authors selected for publication will be posted on www.gumboforthesoul.com and featured in a national press release.

GFTS will notify authors selected for publication via email by December 2009.

Gumbo for the Soul, a 501(c)(3) non-profit entity, will issue the scholarships June 2010.
