This year the Washington DC Jewish Community Center challenge was to write about a major world event that had an impact on your life.Vinod Busjeet has been named the winner of the Hyman S. and Freda Bernstein Jewish Literary Festival Community Prize in the over 18 category.
Busjeet is currently a proctor in Faye Moskowitz’s Advanced Fiction class at George Washington University. His personal experiences and reflections upon students’ work have been a welcome addition to the class. Busjeet submitted for consideration a short piece called “A Matter of Honor,” a touching memoir reflecting on the complications of his parents’ marriage and the unusual and difficult trials that led to its consummation. The piece is now published online for your reading pleasure.
He will be announced as the prize winner on Sunday, October 13th at 7pm during the Local Author Fair, and we encourage all students and faculty to attend.
Once again, congratulations Vinod Busjeet!
