Creative Writing Competition
On October 24, 2008, the participants of the Creative Writing Competition meet the bestseller- and children’s author Libba Bray at the “Bavarian Night of the Libraries” in DAI-Amerikahaus. The students had already labored away at their short, imaginative stories, which were based on a selection from Libba Bray’s book “The Secret Compass - Gemmas Visionen”. But this lead was the only thing the stories had in common. The story of each young author took its own new twist.
Three young authors introduced their work together with Libba Bray in front of
an enthusiastic audience.
The three winners in 2008 were (from left to right):
Florian Sauer, "Army of Nameless Creatures"
Hannah El-Hitami, "Dollhouse"
Nicole Lindner, "A Monstrous Incidence"
