Story Institute is proud to announce our new writing contest for 2016!

Do you have a short story or poem that reflects on a memoir or memory?
Do you have a hope to be published online and in print?

If you answered yes to both of these questions, our new writing contest is for you. This year, we are calling our contest: Memoirs, building stories of our past and present

After the new year, visit us here at Story Institute for a new writing contest that could launch, extend, or cap a young writing career.

Here's a sneak peak into the topic for those who are interested or can not wait another 30 days:

The web is a wonderful place to find resources and ideas. As an author, we never know when inspiration may hit, nor do we always get to choose the form. Below are some resources shared with us by Chadd Corrie, chadcorrie.com. These resources talk about another community from a large publisher (Penguin) for Genre Fiction, and how to build a book trailer.
