Orlando Poetry Judge
“We need to kick humility to the curb more often and believe that what we want to do with our lives is the most important thing in the world…Don’t be too humble to believe you deserve the best partners in your life.”
—Camille Dungy

“The story matters, especially in nonfiction, but I want the language to be more than just a conveyance for meaning. I want the writer to be aware that they are using language. In other words, beauty matters to me, and I love being surprised.”
—Pam Houston
Aimee Liu
Orlando Short Fiction Judge
“I’m hoping to be inspired by the deftness and beauty of language and the originality of ideas in the submissions. I hope to feel each author’s passion between the lines of prose. And of course, I want to fall in love with the characters and care about their struggles.”
—Aimee Liu
Joni B. Cole, Orlando Flash Fiction Judge
