Summer plans are the theme of our current online writing contest and, as always, you can spin it any way you want. Could they lead to a horror story? A funny one? A sad or happy story? It's up to you where that first line takes you! If you're game, then it's time for you all to turn in your online writing contest entries!

The contest is open to kids of all ages, from elementary school students to senior citizens. You may browse through and read past entries dealing with July 4th, nutrition, spiders and more at this URL. http://www.childrencomefirst.com/onlinecontestentries.shtml

So...how about submitting a 200 word story? And even getting your students to do so as well? http://www.childrencomefirst.com/onlinewriter.shtml

As always, here are the rules:
--Your story has to start with the first line given. For the current contest that line is, "Summer plans were going..."
--That has to be its "first line."
--It needs to be under 200 words in length.

Pretty simple, huh? Write it up and submit it using the form on this page, http://www.childrencomefirst.com/onlinewriter.shtml

Fill in all the fields, especially your byline where you need to put a link to your website and/or blog if you have one...or address to your business, etc., whatever you want folks to know about you goes there. Then click the
"SUBMIT" button and you're done!
