Landfall Essay CompetitionIn 1997, Landfall celebrated its 50th
anniversary. To mark the occasion, then editor Chris Price Winning and short-listed essays from past competitions can be read in Landfall 194, 198, 203, 212 and 216. From 2009, the competition will be an annual award, with the winner/s announced in the November issue each year. About the CompetitionThe purpose of the competition remains as it was at the outset: to encourage New Zealand writers to think aloud about New Zealand culture, and to revive and sustain the tradition of vivid, contentious and creative essay writing in this country - as embodied in the non-fiction of early Landfall contributors such as Bill Pearson, in the essays of past winners of this competition, and in the essays the journal continues to publish. Entries for the seventh Landfall Essay Competition will be accepted from 1 May 2009. The closing date for receipt of entries is 5 pm, Friday 31 July 2009. The winning entry/ies will be published in the November 2009 issue. The winner will receive $3000 and a year’s subscription to Landfall.
