U.S. Library of Congress Contest
The United States Library of Congress is holding a contest entitled “Letters About Literature.” To enter, all you have to do is write a letter to an author (living or dead) about how that author’s work affected you. Anybody in grades 4 through 12 can enter, although I assume you have to be living in the United States to enter.
It might actually be a fun idea to run a similar contest on the Young Writers Society…
Check out the contest here. It runs until December 1st and the winners receive cash awards.
By the way, the picture above is of the interior of the Library of Congress. If you’re ever in Washington, DC, go check it out. The crowds aren’t large and the Library has some of the best architecture in Washington.
