The 2011 Eric Hoffer Award For Prose Announced
The Eric Hoffer Project announces the 2011 winner of the Eric Hoffer Award
for Prose with the release of annual anthology Best New Writing 2011.
- New York, NY (1888PressRelease) October 05, 2010 - The latest issue of Best New Writing (Hopewell Publications), an anthology of new fiction and creative nonfiction, will be released on October 5th. BNW includes the Eric Hoffer Award for prose.
The 2011 Hoffer prizewinner for prose, Adam King, is featured in BNW for his story "Outer Spaces," along with other honorees. King's story involves a man who gets pummeled in a bar while his ex, who he thought had moved out of state, reemerges to witness the beating. The story, among other things, discusses our per-ception of reality and the value we place on single moments.
Best New Writing is a sample of contemporary writers from around the world. The only major criteria for consideration is that the work is unpublished and less than 10,000 words. "We are not about promoting what you already know, the styles and genres that are comfortably entrenched," Managing Editor Klim noted. "We are about inclusion and discovery."
This issue also includes stories from Beverly Akerman, Tom Barlow, Linda Boroff, Talia Carner, Robert Ellison, Adam King, Deirdre Leahy, Rachel Maczuzak, Deborah Rise McMenamy, Jim Musgrave, Efe Okogu, Jamie Rand, Meg Sefton, Elaheh Steinke, Anna Taborska, and Rotem Yaniv.
Best New Writing 2011 was edited by Robert Gover, best-selling author of One Hundred Dollar Misunderstanding, Time and Money, and Two Brothers; Christopher Klim, author of Jesus Lives in Trenton, Everything Burns, The Winners Circle, and Idiot!; and Matt Ryan, former editor of Writers Notes Magazine, and Christopher Helvey.
