[Lpobc] FW: 2015 writing contest

[Eric Guillory]

Hi All,

I am forwarding the below message on behalf of Sophie Trist--a high school student in south Louisiana. I have distributed information about this nation-wide contest before but it bears repeating. Parents and teachers, let's do what we can to get our youth involved in the contest. And, for you blind adults, time to unleash the writer within!

Dear Mr. Guillory,

     I hope that you and your family have a happy Thanksgiving 
and enjoy the rest of the holiday season. I will be praying for 
all of you. I'm emailing you today on behalf of the National 
Federation of the Blind's writers' division. The time for the 
2015 youth and adult writing contests is fast approaching, and 
I'm looking to do a little advertising. I need to get word of the 
contest out to TVI's, schools for the blind, local chapters, and 
generally the blind community in the state of Louisiana. I was 
wondering if you could give me some pointers on people I should 
contact, as I've never done this kind of thing before. Any help 
you can give me regarding this advertising is appreciated.

Yours sincerely,
Sophie Trist
