Welcome to GoodStory Contest for Young Writers
To Be or Not to Be a Winner?
Ah, that is the question:
1) Do you have a great imagination?
2) Do you like to tell fabulous stories?
3) Do you like to write poetry, tell a tall tale or write a mystery?
4) Have you written something very good in school or in your journal?
5) Would you like your writing to be published and shared with youth around the world to make the world a better place, one child, one story, one day at a time? (You know good stories like the ones you write, can do just that.)
6) Also would you like to win prizes worth $100 to $25,000 that can propel your writing into highly published works along with a select group of 6000 other GoodStory Contest Winners just like you? (Our GoodStory Contest is dedicated to promote many young writers as winners.)
7) And would you like to consider writing as a fun and profitable profession and even become an accomplished and recognized author?
(All this is possible for you!) If you said, “Yes” to some of the above questions and you are between the ages of 4 and 20 before October 21, 2008, then you are eligible to enter the GoodStory Contest offered on this site.
Don’t let anything hold you back.
All the details are spelled out for you here. So take a few minutes and read all about the prizes, the rules and how to enter. Discuss this with your mom or dad, a friend, classmates and teachers or other people who might help you become the creative writing winner you deserve to be.
President Abraham Lincoln wrote his profound talk, the “Gettysburg Address” on the back of an envelope and it helped heal a nation back then and still is, now.
Words are powerful tools for creating goodness in our lives.
As Mark Twain said, “The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up.”
And this great American writer also said, “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
And I might add as he did — “so write!”
Edward G. Bulwiner-Lytton first uttered those immortal words of truth and great wisdom, "The pen is mightier than the sword."
Dare to dream!
Dare to be who you were born to be.
Dare to write - so that your words can entertain, educate, enlighten, “enbrighten” and enrich the world— one story, one child, one day at a time with excellence and joy and - so that you will be recognized and rewarded for the talent that you were born to be.
Write, enter, win and eee’njoy!
With love and goodness,
