To encourage creative writing, I’m hosting a story contest: The Historical Snowmen Creative Writing Contest!  Tell the story of a historical event from the perspective of an observant snowman.  On the contest page there are some examples and inspiration to get ideas started.

8 stories will be selected and will be featured on the blog in the months of December and January. Those 8 stories will compete for Family Choice Awards and Miss Sarah’s Favorite.

There’s no age limit to this writing contest…so let your imagination fly and write a story. Check the contest page for more details and the guidelines.

Stories may be submitted between October 1 and November 1, 2014. I’m so excited to see what you write.

Your Historian,

Miss Sarah
