The Young Writers' Annual Showcase 2023
All Ages
Have your students written fantastic pieces of work that you’d love to share with the world?
The Young Writers Annual Showcase is an amazing way to celebrate your students' hard work & creativity by giving them the chance for their outstanding pieces to be published in a real book alongside other children & young adults from across the United States.
From stories and poems to blog posts and essays you (or your students) can choose any piece of writing they've written this school year, up to 1,000 words. If there is a longer piece you think is incredible feel free to submit an extract.
It’s the perfect way to celebrate your students' achievement, increase their confidence and showcase your school’s talent! As work has already been written, you don't need to prepare a lesson & you can task your students with selecting their best (or favorite) piece they have written.
❤️ Your students could be published in a real book alongside other budding writers from across the USA
🏆 We're awarding the best writers $100 and a trophy - could it be a student from your school?
The Young Writers' Annual Showcase 2023 has a 1,000-word limit, so let your students' talent shine! You can view last year's winners here.
"This is a great program that gives amazing opportunities to young writers who wish to become authors one day. It’s easy to enter and feels fantastic and rewarding to be published."
