First Line Literary Contest

First Line Literary Contest

Just in time for Summer Reading, the University of North Florida's Carpenter Library invites Ospreys to compose their best opening line to an imaginary novel. Any topic or genre is acceptable, as long as your first sentence is original and draws us in, leaving us craving more. All UNF students, faculty, and staff are welcome to participate. Entries must be submitted online between June 27 and July 8, 2022.

Three lucky wordsmiths will be chosen to receive gift cards:

  • 1st place will receive $20 (Publix)
  • 2nd place will receive $15 (Publix)
  • 3rd place will receive $10 (Publix)

Winners will be announced Monday, July 11 on social media (@unflibrary) and at https://libguides.unf.edu/literarycontests
