Extended Deadline - CONTEST NOW CLOSED
Your students are invited to enter Stranger Sagas, the latest fantastic creative writing contest from Young Writers.
Using our selection of story starters inspire your students to write a mini-saga, a story written in just 100 words! Each story starter sentence can be interpreted as the students wish, so how will they develop the story? What genre will students choose to write in? After all, every great story deserves a great ending…
