EPIC and New Voices are searching for Writers and Poets!

The viewpoint is rapidly changing regarding e-publishing, in both the publishing industry and our school systems. EPIC's New Voices Writing Competition Contest is the perfect opportunity to educate young writers on the variety and versatility of e-books, as well as the e-publishing world.

EPIC established this annual competition in 2005 to encourage writing among Middle School and High School-aged students and to promote e-book awareness within their school systems. Through the New Voices Writing Competition, EPIC offers student writers the possibility of turning dreams into reality, urging them to spread their wings.

The New Voices Writing Competition has been an astounding success in its short history, welcoming talented young entrants from all parts of the globe. Help us continue to offer these authors the opportunity to fly.

We invite your writers, poets, schools, and local organizations to participate in this ELECTRONIC COMPETITION. We welcome all Middle School and High School aged writers attending public, private, or home schools.

Forty-five prizes were awarded in our 2007 competition, with prizes ranging from $100 in cash to e-book gift certificates. All winning entries were compiled into a special anthology available for download at no cost from our website: 2007 New Voices Contest eBook [PDF File]

Copies of our Guidelines, Entry Form, and Permission Slip can be found at: New Voices Contest Rules

Come on board the New Voices Contest Caravan! Help us guide the young writers of the future into this brave new world of e-publishing!!
