AnxietyBC Contest
Share your story and explore anxiety with AnxietyBC's Writing & Video Contest.

 

We’ve all been anxious. First days of school, facing a fear, making a mistake at work; there are many situations where that unmistakable feeling sets in. AnxietyBC is looking for these stories.

For their 2013 Writing and Video Contest, AnxietyBC is seeking creative interpretations about experiences with anxiety from isolation and uncertainty, to dealing with stigma and the distinct impact of anxiety during youth and young adulthood.

Whether it’s your story, a friend’s story, or something you just want to explore, AnxietyBC encourages you to submit your fiction or non-fiction writing, poetry, or video piece to their BC-wide contest.

There are some pretty nifty prizes and experiences up for grabs too. Winners will receive cash prizes, have their entry posted on AnxietyBC’s website as well as the Georgia Straight blog website, and be invited to a meet and greet with the contest’s judges to hail from diverse sectors including writing, publishing, directing, and more.

Submissions are accepted until October 29, 2013 and more details, including submission specifics, can be found online.

Use your words and video to share a story and help end the stigma around anxiety.
