Story

THE LAIPA ASSOCIATION MANDATE
LAIPA is a non-profit organization that recognizes the fact that not all writers get the same opportunities or are heard equally.
Our goal is to ensure that voices and stories from underrepresented writers are not excluded, and we strongly encourage independent authors to submit works that represent diverse viewpoints.
The submission deadline is April 30, 2023. Please note that only works by independent authors are eligible for submission.
