Junior Writers

Storytelling competitions that help young writers find their voice and finish the piece.

Junior Writers is for kids and teens who think in stories, questions, and big ideas. Competitions invite them to respond to a theme with original writing — then give that work a place to be recognized, not buried in a notebook.

Partners reach families who care about literacy, imagination, and the pride of a finished piece. If your brand belongs next to young storytellers, contact us about sponsorship and advertising with Junior Writers.

Why families choose Junior Writers

Prompts that unlock stories

Each theme gives young writers a spark — enough direction to begin, enough freedom to sound like themselves.

Their words, their voice

Parents and teachers can coach and cheer, but the writing belongs to the young creator.

Results worth reading aloud

Winners and notable entries are published so families can celebrate the story that made it through.

Confidence on the page

Finishing a piece for a real competition helps young writers practice courage as much as craft.
