Dory Hulse took 1st place in the Virginia Writers Club's Golden Nib writing contest for her 

non-fiction "Amazing Grace".  Dory is an active member in the Blue Ridge Writers and placed first in the local Blue Nib. You can read her poignant tale of the nonagenarian 

and the community that embraced her. 

David Black took 1st place for his poem "As We Study an Old Photograph". The poem touches the nostalgia of reliving moments captured in a photograph.

Our congratulations to our talented members, and to all members who participated

in this annual writing contest.
