Call for submissions: Writers Read Theme is ‘From a Distance’

Submitted By: nmccarthy1276@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Writers will have an opportunity to gain a new perspective when they enter their work in the Cannon Beach Library’s Writers Read Celebration.
This year, writers will explore and interpret the theme, “From a Distance.”
Some say perspective changes everything. What happens when you can only see something – or someone – from afar? Maybe it’s a planet glimpsed through a telescope, a loved one seen through memories, or a truth that only makes sense once you’ve stepped back.
In its eighth year, Writers Read offers writers of all ages from everywhere the opportunity to
write on a specific theme. All written formats will be considered (essay, story, science fiction,
poetry, haiku, etc.). The deadline for submissions is Feb. 2.
A panel of volunteers will select 10 to 12 works to be read by their authors during the Writers
Read Celebration on March 6 in person at the library or via Zoom.
Writers are asked to follow these guidelines:
• Authors are limited to three entries with a 600-word maximum per entry.
• Submissions should be in Word format.
• Include a separate cover letter with the writer’s name, email and phone number. Please do not include the author’s name or contact information on the entry document so authors remain anonymous to the reading panel.
• Email submissions to info@cannonbeachlibrary.org
The NW Authors Series Committee organizes Writers Read, as well as monthly author presentations and other events at the Cannon Beach Library. A recording of last year’s Writers Read Celebration is available on the library’s website, cannonbeachlibrary.org/events-and-programs/recorded-presentations. It also appears on the library’s YouTube page.

Art in the Manzanita Library in January

Submitted By: susantone@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
NTLF Art in the Library Series is exhibiting abstract paintings by Nehalem Artist Lauren Oujiri for the month of January. Using nontoxic acrylics on recycled canvases for this display, Lauren decided to work with only five colors (without mixing them to make more), and enjoyed and learned from this challenge. She calls these contemplative pieces, invitations to let your mind wander, with some ocean and night/early morning influences.



Lauren is also a photographer and poet. She says, “living as an artist is an important way to express what I’m of, see, feel, and appreciate. Art invited me into a portal to make sense of the world and myself, to see the world (and myself) differently, and to bring beauty and meaning to our community, a place that thrives when art is abundant – and, gratefully, Tillamook County is abundant with art and artists for sure!”

Please stop by the Manzanita Library in January to see Lauren’s artworks. Art in the Library series is sponsored by the North Tillamook Library Friends.
