A Year Of Rejection
Another year of rejection, meager words of consolation and, for a lucky few, elation.
And I’m not talking about the presidential campaigns.
Of the more than 350 entries received in our Colorado Voices writing contest this year (38 of them students), we had to disappoint all but the 16 folks below, who won spots on our 2008-09 panel. (Read their bios at the end of this article.)
So here they are. We’ve tried to represent the community as best we can with these 16 new voices, and we’re proud of the writers we’ve found. Watch for them in our Sunday Perspective section, daily op-ed pages and at denverpost.com over the next year. We can’t wait to see what they come up with. (Lucy Ewing starts off the group today on the cover of Perspective.) MORE
