Letters…

Dear Storylights Team

   

I love writing for your competitions with such amazing ideas and prompts, and I think the idea of having a writing website is amazing.

     

I, like Willow, am turning 16 next year, and I think her idea of having a competition for older teenagers is a really good one. I would also be ecstatic if you considered her idea seriously.

   

Thank you for everything you do, you’re awesome.

   

Blessings,
Abbigail

Thanks, Abbigail!

It’s so helpful hearing your feedback. We’ll definitely aim to have upcoming contests open to 16yos, and possibly look at a category specifically for 16-18yos or even a separate contest if there’s enough interest.

Dear Storylights team

   

I would just like to tell you how much I love Storylights.
this upcoming contest will be my first, but I’ve already fallen in love with your website.
I am a HUGE fan of the Wingfeather Saga, I’ve read all the books and I’ve watched the TV Series.
I also love A Series of Unfortunate Events, Alice in Wonderland, The Chronicles of Narnia, and the Hobbit.
I love to write.
Writing is my hobby.
I’m currently working on a story about a girl who is going camping with another family and when the children go over the river to the other side, they end up in a fantasy, medieval land called Thirthy.
Love to you guys, and I hope you’ll never stop writing!

Hi Alexander,

Thanks for the awesome letter! Your story sounds amazing and must be so fun to write. We definitely enjoy a lot of the same books. Keep up the awesome work!

Dear Storylights (and Thor the Viking Sheep),

   

I’ve really enjoyed doing all your competitions and reading stories written by other people my age. All the picture prompts are beautiful, and it’s so much fun to write stories based on them and hear your feedback comments.
I am turning sixteen next year, and this means I won’t be able to enter any more competitions. I was wondering: there must be other people besides me who are now or will soon be too old to compete, and your website is the only one I know of that runs contests for young people. Would you consider adding an extra age category to the competitions for the 16–17 / 16-18 year-olds or running a separate competition for them?
I understand if this is not possible.

 

May your pens never cease their scribbling!

 

Sincerely,

Willow Brooke (Age 15)

 

P.S. Tell Thor I am well able to protect myself with my trusty swords at my side.

Thanks for you letter, Willow! That’s a great question. We’ve been wondering about this, so it helps knowing people’s level of interest. Ideally we’d love to open things up for an older age group, but we need to work out how viable that is and the best way to do it. We’ll let you know what we come up with early next year.

Thanks for being a part of things. We appreciate having you with us!

P.S. You have Thor’s solemn respect.

Dear Storylights, (And Thor the viking sheep)

Hi Nathalie,

Thanks for the great question!
