Seeing one’s work in a magazine can foster confidence, creativity, and give extra stimulus to transform the writing skills that kids are learning in school into life-long talents.	First, our readers can flip through our interactive online magazine that is published right here on the CYWR website. It looks, feels and “acts” like a printed magazine, but because it’s online, we are able to produce it at no cost for our contributors and subscribers and deliver it to readers across the nation and around the world. Out-of-states grandparents love this! The second format is a trusty good old PDF that we make available for personal download. Send it to family members or print out your story to be mounted at the place of the highest honor at your home, whether it is the notice board, heirloom chest, or refrigerator. Some writers like to use the PDF files to create their portfolios.	Click here for the official rules and guidelines of the contest: https://cywr.org/contests.html
