Featuring past recipients of Arkansas's Porter Literary Prize, 'The Porter Prize: Encouragement For a Young Writer' gives students a rare and candid glimpse into the world of writing - the hardships and the rewards. While watching the film, students see a face and hear a voice, helping them realize that behind the words of their favorite passages are writers that struggled (sometimes decades) to complete the work. The short documentary offers a unique historical perspective to any student seeking to understand the importance of literature in their lives. Written by Anonymous See less
