Given the closenss of the competition, both are published. GAC invited submissions of a short story, scene from a play, poem or song, exceeding 1,000 words, with the top prize being published in the Banner Graphic. The submissions were judged by Jared Jernagan, editor of the Banner Graphic author and educator Beth Benedix, founder and director of The Castle poet Abby Chew of Claremont, Calif., a graduate of South Putnam High School and member of DePauw University class of 2002 Matt McClelland, director of the Putnam County Public Library and writer Donovan Wheeler, senior English teacher at Greencastle High School and content contributor to Indiana on Tap and National Road Magazine. Announced late last year, the GAC creative writing contest welcomed submission from adults throughout the county. In fact, the top four entries were separated by just one point each. Zehner’s poem “This Fallen World” was awarded first place, while White’s “How It Is” was a close second. In a highly-competitive contest that featured multiple quality entries, Damaris Zehner and Sue White took the top two spots in the inaugural Greencastle Arts Council creative writing contest.
