Do you like to write or create cool works of art? Would you like to see it published in a Macaroni Kid South Birmingham e-newsletter? November is the month to be thankful and we want to hear how you are celebrating! Submit your "thankful" story, along with your illustration(s) and/or photos, any time between now and November 17th, and you might see your story and artwork published in our Thanksgiving week newsletter! Five lucky, random authors will each receive a one hour jump pass to Sky Zone in Hoover and everyone else will receive a BOGO (buy 30 minutes, get 30 minutes free jump pass), thanks to our awesome sponsors.
Here are some ideas to get you started. (HERE are last year's submissions).

You can use any of our writing prompts, or come up with your own idea! Just remember the theme....THANKSGIVING! Anyone, up to age 18, may enter the contest!
Note to Parents - to submit stories and artwork, simply take a picture of your child's writing and artwork and email it to jesssearcy@macaronikid.com with the subject line "Writing Contest," before Nov. 17th, 2018. Photos of handwritten stories are welcome, or they may be typed in the body of the email. For photos of writing or artwork, please lay work flat on a table in good light and send us your sharpest pics. Be sure to include the child's full name (or first name, last initial if you prefer privacy) and age/grade. If you would like to include a picture of your child and/or a little blurb about your child, we'll publish that too! By emailing your child's writing, artwork, name, photo, or any other details, you are giving Macaroni Kid South Birmingham permission to publish and share those things in our newsletter and social media channels. DEPENDING ON NUMBER OF SUBMISSIONS NOT ALL STORIES MAY BE PUBLISHED (but we certainly include as many as possible!).
GOOD LUCK!
