WRITERS' LEAGUE OF TEXAS
formerly the Austin Writers' League
Manuscript Contest Winners
2003 Manuscript Contest
The manuscript contest is held in conjunction with the Agents, Agents, Agents and Editors Too! Conference, held each year, usually in July, in Austin by the Writers' League of Texas.
Over two hundred writers entered the 2002 competition. Celeste Seay was the Contest Chairperson (and did an outstanding job with the help of some very dedicated member volunteers!).
