Thank you for supporting young writers!
We greatly appreciate your commitment to Ohio's astute young writers. At Power of the Pen tournaments, students practice their writing skills and create brilliant works worthy of applause.
The highest award a young writer can receive is publication in the Book of Winners. Only writers whose work receives a Platinum Pen Award are published. Platinum Pen Award winners are selected at the District, Regional, and State levels. Out of thousands of pieces of writing produced annually, about 100 are published.
