Mini Sledgehammer 36-Minute Writing Contest

February 14 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Free
214 Minisledgehammer

Join us for writing fun and prizes!

We give the writers four writing prompts and set the timer for 36 minutes. When the time is up, they read their stories and the judges select a winner—all right there on the spot. There’s no time to hesitate, second-guess, or hold back. Then the winner takes home prizes! All writers are welcome, from published professionals to newborn novelists.

The Mini Sledgehammer Writing Contest has been going for more than a decade. You can read past winning stories at www.sledgehammercontest.com.

Arrive at 6:30 p.m. to grab a snack or drink. The event will start at 7:00 p.m.

Event cohosted by BOLD Coffee & Books and Indigo: Editing, Design, and More.
