The NYT Newspaper is hosting a world-wide writing contest for teens ages 13-18. Of the thousands of entries, 13 will be chosen to be published in the New York Times. These narratives are mini memoirs, meaning that you have to write about an event that happen in your real life, not about someone else. This short story can be up to 100 words long, not including the title. To view last year’s winning entries, see more information about this, or submit a story, visit the link attached. If you wish for your story to be published on this website, send us your story!
