Write On! Young Voices Speak is a creative writing program that is
open to students in grades K-12 and special education within the circulation
area of the Kingsport Times-News.
The column is printed in the Kingsport Times-News each Wednesday throughout
the school year, with the exception of the Christmas holidays.
Included is a list of rules and the topics for the next school year. Click
here now for this year's topics.
Deadlines:
Deadline for submitting student work is always the
FRIDAY before the Wednesday when the column will appear. Notice that
the topics have corresponding Friday due dates.
Submission:
You may fax the columns to 1-423-245-4910.
Email: eriner@timesnews.net.
Regular mail is also acceptable.
Please include STUDENT NAME, GRADE, SCHOOL and TEACHER'S NAME with
each entry! Place this information on each paper, not the packet.
Selection Guidelines and Tips:
Many factors are considered in the selection of the entries. We read
for creative answers and excellence of writing. We try to balance the
ages and sexes of the students, as well as provide a good selection
of entries from different schools. It really helps if the writing is
clearly legible.
Please remember: We cannot print student work that is unrelated to
one of our topics.

If your students
do not see their names in print for several weeks, please ask them
to try, try again!!! We receive an average of 200 to 300 paragraphs
a week, so it takes time to get around to everyone! We do try! |

What summer activity are you most looking forward to?
Diamond Bledsoe, 3rd grade, Shoemaker Elementary, M. Leighton, Teacher
The summer activity I am looking forward to the most is playing with my family. I love them and we can play with my new water slide. We can even go to my Mamaw's and play. We can do so much and I am so proud to have so much love! God Bless America!
