Train of Thought Youth Writing Project

A gift card for your thoughts….and words. We know that there are many talented young authors and artists in this community, and we’d love to hear from you.

This is a virtual writers’ space for teens and kids, offering a different writing prompt each month.

What do you write? Stories, poetry, graphic novel panels–it’s all good! 

Just send your piece by the 25th of the month to:

mcculloughyouthservices@gmail.com

We’ll publish it on our site (you can use a pen name if you want). The FIRST entry will get a $20 GIFT CARD.
