It’s that time of the year when authors dust off unpublished manuscripts, or start or finish new ones, in the hopes of bagging the big one – a Palanca Award.
The Carlos Palanca Foundation, Inc., the contest organizer, has announced it is now accepting entries for this year’s tilt. It is open to all Filipino citizens or former Filipino citizens of all ages, based locally or abroad.● English Division – Short Story, Short Story for Children, Essay, Poetry, Poetry Written for Children, One-act Play, and Full-length Play;
How can the government and families help the youth harness its transformative potential while mitigating inherent risks as they navigate the digital landscape? The Foundation stipulates that in the Novel and Nobela categories, works published within the last two years and unpublished works may be submitted.A work that has been awarded a prize in another contest before midnight of 31 May 2024 is not qualified.Physical copies and email submissions will not be accepted. For the contest rules and forms, see the website as well.
So, we have to be careful when we think about who wins these awards, and if you don’t win one, it doesn’t mean your work isn’t worthy.● With such contests open to Filipinos in-country and from all over the world, competition is very stiff. Well-crafted prose and attention to detail can enhance the overall quality of a literary work. However, in what judges may deem are meritorious cases, exceptions can be made.● Despite efforts to be impartial, judges may be influenced by their own biases, including personal preferences, cultural background, literary influences, and previous experiences.
