What is the difference between The Blue Pencil Online, The Blue Pencil, and The Elizabeth Bishop Prizes?
The Blue Pencil Online is home to a collection of works by promising young writers (ages 12 to 18) from all over the world. The Blue Pencil is a print magazine comprised of selected works from members of the Writing & Publishing department at Walnut Hill. The Elizabeth Bishop Prizes are awarded to the best fiction, verse, and playwriting accepted for publication on TBPO each year. (Click here for further details.) The prize — one for each genre — is a scholarship to the Writing & Publishing Program at Walnut Hill and a copy of Elizabeth Bishop’s Poems, Prose, and Letters, published by The Library of America, a valued supporter of the Prizes.
