Calling Creative Teens...

Teen Ink is a national teen magazine, book series, and website devoted entirely to teenage writing and art. It is distributed through classrooms by English teachers, Creative Writing teachers, Journalism teachers and art teachers around the country. If your teen is looking for a creative outlet (and some national recognition), Teen Ink's contests may be for him or her. Non-fiction, poetry, art, photography...these are some of the contests open to teens ages 13-19. Teen Ink is funded by the Young Authors Foundation, Inc., a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization devoted to helping teens share their own voices, while developing reading, writing, creative and critical-thinking skills.
