Mozelle Memoir Contest: Past WinnersThe
Mozelle Memoir Contest, established by Roy and Barbara Minton in 2006, offers
an opportunity for writers to tell the stories they’ve always meant to write.
The name of the contest is derived from the title of Barbara's first published
story in The Noble Generation Volume II (Word Wright International.biz
2004). "Mozelle" is the story of two young girls in the 1940's, discovering
friendship while caught in the time warp of segregation, a world war, and plain
old happenstance. The dignity and courage of Mozelle lives on through the telling
of her story.
