Welcome to the New Teen News Blog!
This time of year keeps us indoors sometimes feeling like there is nothing to do, but there is ALWAYS something for teens to do at Coshocton Public Library! Contests, programs, and meetings with friends, books, magazines, and newspapers to read, music and movies to take home, and the Internet where you can create, communicate, and learn! Take a look at what's happening now:
The rules:
1. Writers must be 12 to 19 years old.
2. Short stories can be no longer than 4,000 words.
3. Stories must be typed and double spaced.
4. Put the title and page number of your story on the top of each page.
5. Ice and snow must have a major role in the story.
6. Type your name, your age, the title of your story and your phone number or e-mail address on a separate piece of paper and turn it in with your story. Do not put your name on your story so it will be judged equally with other entries.
