IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Literary Contest. The PNWA Literary Contest is designed to teach authors the format expected for a book proposal. This skill gives them the confidence to not only pitch their novel at the conference, but submit it to a book agent or editor.Each entry submitted to the contest is read by pre-screened readers, resulting in two critiques. The 8 finalists in each category are read by either a book agent or editor who determine the first, second and third place winner in each category. In 2020 a greater number of our finalists than in the past were successful in achieving either representation from an agent, or a book contract.The Nancy Pearl Literary Contest is open to published authors. Librarians read books and we announce winners at our summer conference.
