The Pomegranate Foundation and Slash Pine Press Encourage You to Submit Your Writing

The Pomegranate Foundation in conjunction with Slash Pine Press is soliciting writing that captures the spirit of the Tuscaloosa, Holt, Alberta, and University communities during and after the April 27 tornadoes that tore through the Tuscaloosa area. The editors of Slash Pine Press will select a cross-section of twenty submitted pieces to represent the Tuscaloosa area, and these pieces will be immortalized in the Community Space to be constructed and opened this summer at the Jaycee Park in Alberta City. 

We welcome journals, essays, poems, reflections, and all other forms of writing from all ages that represent Tuscaloosa's sense of community and spirit in the face of the April 27th tragedies. We do ask that the pieces be less than 100 words and advise that, if selected, it may be necessary for us to make minor edits or formal changes to fit available spaces. For more information about the Pomegranate Foundation and their projects, please visit http://pomegranatefoundation.org.
