2022 Beyond... and Write Off Line Competition Notice
For a decade, Young New Zealand Writer’s writing competitions have gone out to all intermediate and secondary schools across the North and South Islands of Aotearoa. Much hard work goes into holding these competitions each year. It includes providing individual feedback to the hundreds of students who participate, judging and prize-giving, producing two beautiful anthology books, and organizing the highly anticipated Young Writers’ Day Out full-day workshop that connects students with New Zealand authors and expands their love for story-telling.
You can imagine the hundreds of hours spent yearly to make this possible, all done by volunteers. Though we love what we do, Young New Zealand Writers will be taking a break for 2022 and 2023.
In the meantime, we encourage students to keep writing and keep your love for creating new stories alive.
Kind regards,
Jean Gilbert
