ENTRIES FOR THE 2023 CWA COMMUNICATIONS CONTEST
Entries will open sometime in March or April 2023. Stay tuned!
Thank you to this year’s Contest Committee for their efforts in making the Contest the best it can be! Contest Committee members include Katherine Kern, Andrea Dorn, Amy Shojai, Lynn M. Thompson, Dusty Rainbolt, Deb Barnes, Mollie Hunt, Arden Moore, Anita Aurit, Lynn Miller, Beverly Garland, Marjorie Dawson, and Maggie Marton.
Each year, the Cat Writers’ Association selects the best entries and awards them with Certificates of Excellence. The highest-scoring Certificate-winning entry in each category receives a Muse Medallion at our Annual Awards Ceremony. Anything published during 2022 may be entered, and that includes writing, photography, art, graphic design, and more. Anyone (including those outside the United States) can enter, not just members!
