JCDecaux’s iconic literary competition, Stop for a Short Story!, returns this year to give talented writers the opportunity to have their work read by the public at the country’s busiest bus and tram stops.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Since the competition began in 2017, the jury members have reviewed more than 20,000 short stories. Each year, the winning works are displayed at the city’s busiest stops, where thousands of commuters can see them every day. Over the years, they have served as a springboard for many aspiring writers, while providing readers with an inspiring and thought-provoking reading experience.<\/p>\n\n

“Reading is an experience that can transform our everyday lives. The short stories that we can read in the city as part of the literary competition give us the opportunity to pause for a moment and let the stories connect us. Libri has declared this year the Year of Reading, and we are delighted that JCDecaux’s initiative will encourage even more people to take up this activity,”<\/em> explains Ludvig Orsolya Stefanie, Libri’s marketing and communications director.<\/p>\n\n

T\u00edmea Jamniczky, CEO of JCDecaux Hungary, added: “This is the eighth time that short stories have appeared on our advertising spaces this year. According to feedback, travelers really appreciate being able to enrich the time they spend at stops with meaningful, quality reading. Urban spaces are not just transportation hubs\u2014they are places where culture can become a natural part of everyday life.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n

The organizers are accepting entries for this year’s eighth literary competition between April 1 and April 30, which is once again being held with the support of Libri.<\/p>\n\n

As in previous years, 20 entries will be shortlisted this year, with three winners receiving cash prizes. The main prize is 300,000 forints, while the winner of the Libri Young Talent Award for writers under 25 will receive 200,000 forints.<\/p>\n\n

The jury evaluating the entries is chaired by Kriszti\u00e1n Grecs\u00f3, winner of the J\u00f3zsef Attila Prize, and its members include writer Betti Koll\u00e1r, a favorite among young audiences, No\u00e9mi Orvos-T\u00f3th, a psychologist with a transgenerational approach, Orsolya StefanietLudvig, marketing and communications director at Libri, and T\u00edmea Jamniczky, CEO of JCDecaux Hungary.<\/p>\n\n
