Sarah0000 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Hi everyone, Just wanted to share two new kidlit writing contests. The first one, happening now, is looking for KID JUDGES. Aspiring, adult authors of kidlit (picture books, middle grade, and young adult) will be submitting short entries that will be distributed to registered kid judges. The adult winners will win prizes donated by those in the publishing industry. The second contest, happening in July, will be for KID AUTHORS. I don't know what the prizes will be for this one. Please note, I am not sponsoring this event, I just wanted to pass along the information. My kids are excited to participate in both, and as an author, I have donated a prize to the winner. Details and registration forms are on the following webpage: Introducing the Kids' Choice KidLit Writing Contest (kaileipewbooks.com) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoes+Ships+SealingWax Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Very cool! I signed DS up to be a judge; hopefully it’s not too late, since it looks like she wants everything read & judged this month. If nothing else, we look forward to the kids’ writing portion. Thanks for sharing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think she's planning to send a little gift/note to each kid, too. Two of mine did it, one for picture books and one for middle grade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DS got Group B & a couple were “meh” but there were a several that he really liked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah0000 Posted February 19, 2022 Author Share Posted February 19, 2022 Oh I didn't catch which group. My DS had a similar reaction. That's probably expected because of the variety in styles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
