Hey, it’s time to start the new year “write.” (Sorry. I should resolve not to pun this year.)
Below are two writing contests for girls 7-12 (chixLITtle) and 13-17 (chixLIT).
chixLIT and chixLITtle, literary ‘zines by and for girls, are looking for the good things that come in small packages. Our motto is, “Words are powerful, and they can make you powerful too.”
Each ‘zine will publish winners plus a selection of finalists. The winning story in each category will receive a cash prize! Additional prizes may be awarded at judges’ discretion. Decision of judges is final.
