"But the old woman shook her head and said, 'Oh, you dear children, who brought you here? Just come in and stay with me. No harm will come to you.'"
For young aspiring authors, the Texas Book Festival and the Division of Diversity and Community Engagement (DDCE) hosts the Annual Fresh Ink Fiction Contest. Young means whippersnappers (although I still don't know what that means), or rather, that you must be in middle school or high school to submit your book to the contest.
From what I read, this contest runs a different theme or subject every year. This year, they chose the theme, "What Really Happened."
I would personally like to know "What Really Happened," and, fortunately, I will be able to find the winning stories published on https://www.texasbookfestival.org.
The last day for submission is on May 18th! So get over there and submit!
