This year marks the third annual Maryland Young Writers' Contest sponsored by CityLit Project and Baltimore's Child. In 2008, we received 400 submissions. Last year, we received over 900 submissions. Come on teachers and young writers, let's not just break 1000 this year but push for 1500!
Young authors, poets, and playwrights need a forum for their work and Baltimore's Child and CityLit Project have teamed up to offer these young people the audience and recognition they deserve. Each fall, the Maryland Young Writers' Contest for students in grades 3-12 as well as home-schoolers recognizes outstanding short stories and poems in three age groups: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8, and Grades 9-12.
Prizes are offered in each category and first place winners are published in Baltimore's Child. All winners are invited to read their entries at a local Barnes & Noble in the spring. Pictured... [above] are some of the winners from last year's contest who read at the Barnes & Noble Inner Harbor.
Deadline is December 31, 2010, so get writing today!
