Event Details

It's back! PTPL will be holding its third annual Tween & Teen Writing Contest. This year's theme is "Wonder." 

Whether you want to explore "wonder" as a noun (a feeling of surprise, mingled with admiration caused by something beautiful, expected, or inexplicable) or a verb (1. to be curious to know something or 2. to feel doubt) -- you can get creative in how you craft an original story that relates to the theme! 

Teens and tweens can submit their work of fiction (either a short story, or a chapter of a longer work) between March 1-15. 

Winners will be announced at a reception on April 8th at 6 p.m. at the library. 

Complete rules and entry forms are available at: ptlibrary.org/2025-writing-contest.
