Mozelle Memoir Contest: 2008

The Mozelle Memoir Contest, established by Roy and Barbara Minton in 2006, offers an opportunity for writers to tell the stories they’ve always meant to write. The name of the contest is derived from the title of Barbara's first published story in The Noble Generation Volume II (Word Wright International.biz 2004). "Mozelle" is the story of two young girls in the 1940's, discovering friendship while caught in the time warp of segregation, a world war, and plain old happenstance. The dignity and courage of Mozelle lives on through the telling of her story. Unpublished writers are strongly encouraged to participate.
