❀ JWC Writing Competition 2025 ❀ Welcome to our writing competition for 2025! Our amazing judges for this session are our amazing hosts Em, @iinspirqtion, Piper, @Piper_Camps, and Iris, @Eeveedonut! Congrats on the judges for this session, @iinspirqtion, @strawberry-lemon, @pepper-and-a-pencil, and @tokowrites <3 ⇢ Winning Places There is a first-place, second-place, and third-place winner along with a junior category winner. There will also be best character development, best conflict, best storytelling, best setting/world-building, and best theme winners. There are also three honorable mentions, as well as the Script category ⇢ The Script Category This category is to give a chance to any aspiring playwrights out there! Any short play or script counts for this, and it's also an opportunity to expand your writing genre. ⇢ The Junior Category While age does not necessarily equate to skill, the Junior Category was created to give a better chance to less experienced writers. By entering this category, you will not be excluded from winning the other places. This simply gives you another opportunity to place! If you are 12 or younger, you are eligible to enter the Junior category. If you aren't comfortable sharing your age online, that's completely fine! You can still enter all the other categories. ⇢ Point Values Winning any of these places could help your cabin move up in the rankings!
