Precious Words Writing Contest
Write a
story appropriate for kids ages 12 or under, using only 50 words…they can all
be different words, or you can use some of them over and over…just as long as
the total word count for the story is 50 or less.
It can be
prose, rhyme, free verse, silly or serious…whatever works for you.
Title is
not included in the word count.
No
illustration notes please.
The
contest officially opens on Thursday, March 2nd, in a special post on my blog.
Between
March 2nd and March 6th, post your story on your blog if you have one and put
the link in the comments of my #50 Precious Words Challenge blog post OR post
the entire story in the comments of my #50 Precious Words Challenge blog post.
Last year, because the stories were so short, eventually, we had all of them in
the comment thread. Please make sure you put your name in the post.
Deadline for posting the
story or the link in the comments is Monday, March 6, at 11:59pm.
Winners
will be announced Thursday, March 9.
Winners?
Of course, there will be winners…and prizes, too! The book prizes are limited
to USA addresses, please.
