The Red House Young Writers Competition is now open. Submissions of fewer than 1000 words are invited from children aged 7-17 in four age groups. They may write poems, stories or articles, and the winners will have their work published and be invited to a writing workshop, hosted by a children's author, at The Imagine Children's Festival in February 2014.

The competition closes on 31 July. See our Promoting Reading: Reading and Writing Competitions page for more information.
