What is The Southwest Minnesota Writing Gallery?
In celebration of the October 20, 2010 Second Annual National Day on Writing, and with the help of NCTE (National Council for Teachers of English), high school and college students in Southwest Minnesota have a place to display a piece of writing of their choice.
Who can participate?
High school and college students in Southwest Minnesota with any kind of writing* may upload ONE piece of writing at http://galleryofwriting.org/galleries/55821. Any kind of writing will work —from word processing to power points, research posters, research papers, photography, audio recording to text messages—and all types of writing—from letters to lists, memoirs to memos, poems to nonfiction essays, journal entries to technical documents.
*All writing submitted should meet the content guidelines found at:http://www.galleryofwriting.org/guidelines.php
