Literary Art Showcase, Call for Writers - 2010 Seattle Erotic Art Festival

Last year the Seattle Erotic Art Festival was delighted to premiere the Literary Art Showcase. Created to highlight writing as an important art form, the Showcase, the first of its kind at any erotic art festival, featured work from poets, playwrights and authors from across the country.

The jurors selected seven top works of erotica from the 120 pieces submitted by more than 50 writers. Selected poems, stories and plays were exhibited through live readings and specially designed books in a luxurious environment created by Literary Art Showcase Director, Shana Deon.

Featured writers, selected by a panel of professional writers, will have their work presented as part of an interactive installation created specifically for the Festival and may be selected for a future anthology of writing.

The call for writers is open until March 1, 2010.

There are three categories

*Poetry (all forms)

*Short stories (5 pages or less, single-spaced)
