Hear works read by winners of Kauaibackstory’s 2009 “Postcards” creative competition from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday in the Kilohana Plantation Living Room.

Time permitting, other writers may sign up to read original works of writing on a first-come, first-read, sign-up basis. Time limit not to exceed five minutes.
Submissions of the contest winners and runners up will begin posting on kauaibackstory.com after the public reading; however, a special, one-night only preview will take place at A Ell Atilier as the showcased art during the weekly Old Kapa’a Town Art Walk from 5 to 9 p.m. Saturday.
Kauaibackstory.com is a venue for rigorous writing with a view about Kaua‘i. Year-round, the on-line literary journal welcomes high-quality writing and thoughtful images from the public. All submissions are moderated by a three-person editorial board, however, not all are posted. Kauaibackstory.com encourages interactive dialogue with the hopes that the time-honored tradition of kama‘ilio, talk story, will build community and understanding.
Competition runners-up are Aliana Ho, student; Ron Horoshko, Alison Hummel, Tamara Moan, Polli Oliver, Hob Osterlund, Rocky Riedel and Ela Young, student.
