Submissions Open for 2014 New Albany Word of the Year
It’s a defining moment for New Albany and Southern Indiana. For the first of what we hope will be many years, Destinations Booksellers, in partnership with a local non-profit that will remain unnamed for the moment, will hold a competition to determine the 2014 New Albany Word of the Year ...
It's all about defining the city, much as Fauxcentennial, "quality of life" and no-brainer did throughout 2013.
... New Albany’s 2014 Word of the Year contest is designed to find that quintessential word that defines the city this year. The judges will honor esoteric entries, but keep in mind that the finals will be voted on by the public, so obscure and unfamiliar words might not quite measure up. Nonetheless, don’t limit yourself. We invite you to submit your word(s) alone or with an explanation of why the word applies so surely to New Albany.
The possibilities are endless, but my first nomination (of many) is agoraphobia. Send your ideas to the Bookseller.
