Company details

Written by the company

Young Writers runs national writing contests for schools, helping to turn students' imagination and creative talent into confidence and writing skills. We support educators across the States by creating engaging creative writing contests, themes, outstanding resources and awarding incredible prizes to both schools and students. The result is confident writers! Almost daily we're told that children and young adults who see their work published in a printed book have more confidence in their writing, are encouraged to write more, read more, and their literacy levels improve. Many of us at Young Writers were poets and storytellers from a young age. Some of us wrote poetry as a way to express our emotions and others found creative freedom in being able to convey our thoughts & imagination through writing. We want children and young adults to keep using their awesome gift for imagination and creativity! Here at Young Writers we will always be here to support, inspire and celebrate them.

Wrong School

Initially my book was printed with the wrong school name. After several back and forths with Aaliyah in customer service, she corrected the issue and sent us new copies with the corrected information! I understand mistakes can happen, but standning by your product is what matters most.
Thanks so much for the great customer service.

This was our first time entering this contest! My gifted middle schoolers are challenged with entering at least one academic competition per school year. This was a great experience for my poetry writers! Thank you.

above and beyond

Aaliyah was so helpful and quick to get me help adding my sons into the book when I received late paper from his daycare that he had not attended for awhile. She made us very happy and the fact he was able to be included made us happier =)
