Announcing the 2021 KET Young Writers Contest!

It’s been said that writers create people and places that didn’t exist before, and that’s like magic. Well, KET Education is calling all magicians – word wizards and drawing sorcerers – to wave your wands and share your magic with us!

The KET Young Writers Contest invites students in Kindergarten through fifth grade to submit illustrated stories, students in fourth through twelfth grades to submit short stories, and students in fourth through twelfth grades to submit poetry. Winners are selected and prizes awarded.

The contest opens December 1, 2020 with the deadline to enter April 15, 2021.

Visit the contest website to hear the authors read winning pieces from previous contests, see the official rules, reference the scoring rubrics now, and start submitting your own creative magic soon!
