The Telling Room's Statewide Writing Contest is Now Open!

The Telling Room’s annual creative Writing Contest allows youth from all over Maine, ages 6 - 18, to show off their writing skills! This statewide contest runs from mid-October through November each year. A panel of professional writers and youth selects one grand prize winner, and finalists are considered for publication in The Telling Room’s annual anthology.
