Last year NJALL held its second annual adult learner writing contest. The five entry categories were fiction, non-fiction, memoir, poetry and photography. Several winners read their work and received their awards at the annual NJALL conference on April 8th, 2016. All of the winners and selected other submissions have now been collected in our magazine entitled Insight.
You can download a free pdf of the magazine at this link. We'd like to thank all of the students who participated and all of the teachers and tutors that made it possible. It is an honor to read the students' work, and we are happy to be able to share it with you now. The call for submissions for this year's contest was distributed and submissions collected. Come to this year's conference to hear winners read from their work.
