With great pleasure, we announce the finalists, winners, and honorable mentions in the 2018 International Literary Awards, sponsored by Center for Women Writers at Salem College. The submissions went through two rounds of readers before being sent along to the judges, who had the hard and rewarding task of selecting the final winners and honorable mentions. The process was fair: the readers read anonymously. The judges received the names of the winners only minutes prior to the public receiving the information.
