It's not too late to submit your creative work to Letters from the Fourth Floor.
We are accepting poetry, short prose, and visual art. This year's theme is Kintsugi--the Japanese word that describes the art of transforming something broken into something more beautiful than the original. It can be seen as a metaphor for transformation from a broken state. It is about valuing the imperfect.
Anyone can submit their work through this form by March 22nd. Questions? Reach out to Blair Vandehey, Ms. Bartel, or Ms. Bend.

All published authors will also receive a certificate of achievement from Rosen Publishing.
