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
