Yah!

Thanks to all who sent in their submissions for our Take Me Away writing contest! And holy cow there were a lot of you! I've got 3 gigantic bins full of student writing on my desk right now. As soon as I'm done making a way cool fort out of them, I swear, we're going to read each and every one. Who knows? Yours could be the winner! It could be the one a quarter of the way down stack #2 just waiting to be chosen! How exciting! Check out the April/May issue of Writing to see if your poem or story was the best!

Psst... don't tell anyone, but I'm rooting for you.

Keep it under your hat.

The deadline for the Take Me Away writing contest has passed. Please do not send anymore entries--they will not be accepted. Seriously now. Stop sending. There's nothing I can do, I'm sorry. Rules are rules, chief. Isn't that what they say? Yes, but they also say that rules were made to be broken. Well not in this case they weren't. No sirree, Bob. However, you can always send your writing to word@weeklyreader.com for possible publication on this site! Our blog shall never die.

Long live WORD!
