For over 30 years, the West Virginia Young Writers Contest has celebrated student writing in the state.  The YWC grows out of a deep commitment to writing in all subjects, and to the publishing, displaying and celebrating of student writing.

Students winning first place on the county level will be honored on May 11 at the University of Charleston, during West Virginia Young Writers Day. Students, their teachers and family members can participate in a variety of activities including writing workshops as well as some receiving state level writing awards.
