<td width="361" valign="top"><strong>Announcing the Call for Literary Art</strong></p>
<p>Last year the Seattle Erotic Art Festival was delighted to   premiere the Literary Art Showcase. Created to highlight writing as an important   art form, the Showcase, the first of its kind at any erotic art festival,   featured work from poets, playwrights and authors from across the country.</p>
<p>Featured writers, selected by a panel of professional writers,   will have their work presented as part of an interactive installation created   specifically for the Festival and may be selected for a future anthology of   writing.</p>
<p><strong>The call for writers is open until March 1, 2010.</strong></p>
<p>There are three categories of literary art:</p>
<p>-1.        Poetry (all forms)</p>
<p>-1.        Short stories (5 pages or less, single-spaced)</p>
<p>-1.        Short one-act plays or scripts (25 pages including scene   setup)</p>
<p>In order to apply, you must be at least 18 years old.</p>
<p>For more information about the literary call for art,   including rules and regulations, visit <a href="http://www.mynewsletterbuilder.com/tools/refer.php?s=876675039&amp;u=19948515&amp;v=2&amp;key=23e3&amp;url=http://seattleerotic.org/site2/index.php?page%3Dliterary-art-showcase">www.SeattleErotic.org</a>.</p>
