Edna Staebler Personal Essay Contest



Address:

290 Westmount Rd. N
Waterloo, ON CA

In the spirit of Edna’s contributions to the genre, we are interested in essays of any length, on any topic, in which the writer’s personal engagement with the topic provides the frame or through-line. There is no restriction on essay length or subject matter, but the author must be a Canadian citizen or resident.
