The theme for HEPL's next Teen Writing Challenge is mysteries! Teen writers can submit an original short story for a chance to win a gift card and have their story shared on our website.
Challenge yourself to write a short mystery story! Your mystery could be thrilling or cozy, realistic or supernatural, a murder investigation or tracking down a stolen painting, and anything else you can imagine. Let your creativity and cleverness work together to create an interesting mystery.
Entries are due by August 31st. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners will receive gift cards and the winners' stories will be shared on HEPL's website! Find out more about guidelines, requirements, and how to submit on our Teen Blog.
For teens in grades 6-12 only.
