I haven’t gotten my response and I don’t know if it’s because I didn’t win or I haven’t been notified. I kind of want to call but I don’t want to be pushy. Has anyone called?
Writer here! Any other writer willing to exchange/discuss works? Still haven’t heard back, though. I think I did not win, all I can do is hope. Message me if anyone wants to talk!
Writer that hasn’t been notified. Hoping that there is still hope.
I haven’t been notified either…and after all my hard work, I even turned it in early… :-/
It’s like scholastic all over again xD
Has anyone heard anything on visual arts? I’ve scanned the internet and I can’t seem to find anything
Any theatre people notified?
Also starting to lose hope. I feel like my poetry might not fit the mold that other Youngarts poetry winners seem to fit. Is it just me or do they have a certain aesthetic they gravitate towards?
@Pentatonix123 I totally agree! They do have a certain type/aesthetic. So I have very little faith that I actually have any shot for any type of award
From what I have seen, the writers usually have an aesthetic. It covers controversial or unusual topics. I checked out the winner from last year in my section and it was very much a personal style of writing. Just hoping for the best, regardless.
FYI, my fellow writers, do not loose hope! There are six sections in writing to be won/informed:
NON-FICTION | NOVEL | PLAY OR SCRIPT | POETRY | SHORT STORY | SPOKEN WORD
So I assume it will take a little longer than the other disciplines. But I can’t say, it is just what I hope hahah:(
@lebookworm0110 I’m hoping all of us get some sort of good news!
I’ve seen one finalist for visual art tagged on Instagram…@15cjames kind of nervous I think they are either from ny or no…I’m still trying to be optimistic tho…are their different sections for visual arts ?
@Razor123 Ok, thank you for the update! I’m not sure, my sister applied in VA. I’m just trying to figure out if she still has a shot, but I can’t find anything on VA results
Yeah I haven’t seen anything either I applied to…it’s so nerve racking @15cjames
@lebookworm0110 Thank you for the update
Has anyone got any news who wrote for script?? I haven’t seen anyone from my discipline but it may be because it’s uncommon
@tatamang I’m afraid not
Has anyone heard anything else for Short Story?
@Lunarlitgend Ugh. I wish they would say which disciplines are done being announced. I might have heard no one because of how uncommon it is or because they did not announce them yet, and there’s no way of finding out which. no one around me applied.
And i haven’t seen many short story winners, or none at all on twitter. Don’t lose hope! This is a really confusing process and it seems like they’re being random aha.
Has anyone heard from poetry yet? 99% sure I didn’t win but it’s okay anyways (I have two more years)
@wistfulwords I saw something on twitter about a poetry winner for this year
