The Writers of Kern have published two Anthologies and are planning on another one in 2007. This gives our members a chance to see their work in print and it gives them a clip to add to their resume.
All members are invited to submit their work and then at least three members check and edit the material. There is a word limit and we insist that there be no obscene passages in the stories.
We had 26 member’s stories or poems published in Anthology I and 32 members had things published in Anthology II. Members are invited to submit no more than three submissions. The committee forming the anthology panel has the right to reject any submission.
Jim Imel formatted the first Anthology 2001 and Terry Redman did the final work on Anthology II in 2003. The editor for the 2007 Anthology will be Lucinda Soria.
WOK members have also performed readings at the Bakersfield Arts Museum and have read their stories on Public Radio, KVPR. Some of the children’s authors have participated in the Kern Co. Museum’s reading promotions.
California Writers Week is in October and each year special events are planned.
Writers of Kern have also participated in the huge annual Book Fair in Los Angeles in prior years.
