KIdsWWwrite invites authors 16 years of age and younger to submit their original poems and stories. Please read the following guidelines before submitting for the first time.
 

	Children up to 16 years of age may submit their own original writing.
	Submissions may consist of up to 4 poems (not exceeding one page each) or a story of up to 1,000 words.
	Before submitting, be sure to spell check your writing and to make sure you used proper grammar and punctuation. We cannot place stories typed all in capital letters. We cannot use stories that don't have proper punctuation like commas, periods and quotation marks. When you share your writing with the world, be sure it is your very best!
	All writing must respect and observe the common courtesies towards others and language must be respectable.
	Submissions must include your name, age, geographical location and e-mail address but only the first name, age and city are published with the writing. For more information, please refer to our privacy policy.
	All writing remains the property of the author, but permission is granted to the Kalamalka Institute for Working Writers to publish the work in KIdsWWwrite and to retain the work for archival and promotional purposes. For more information, refer to the copyright page.
	Authors are not paid for the published writing.
	Stories and poems may be edited to fit the available space and format or to correct language use. We are fortunate to have renowned children's author Margriet Ruurs as the inaugural editor.
	Writing should be submitted using the online form.

Happy writing!
