Our Contests
WritingContest100 offers a variety of writing competitions. Our major contests are organized by age: Youth (12 - 14), High School (15 - 18), College (19 - 22) and Open (23 and over) and have a limit of 100 entries each. As soon as one contest fills, another opens - so there is always a contest you can enter!
