Congratulations on being a finalist! Winners will be announced next week. If your name isn't on the list, you'll be receiving an email from me in the next couple days with your feedback. We had 204 entries to this contest, so please be patient. That's a lot of emails to send!

Also, the Go Teen Writers Rewards store will be open through February 28th and then will close temporarily. That means if you want to earn points for critiques or video calls, you have this month and next month to Tweet, review, subscribe, and promote. You'll still be able to redeem points after February 28th, but you won't be able to earn more for a while.

For a refresher on what can earn you points, or if you've never heard about our rewards store, you can find out more here.

    3. Don't worry, I didn't make it either. But, you know, it doesn't mean that we failed or that our stories weren't good. I did my best and I bet you did yours so don't be disappointed. Better luck next time. :)

    4. You didn't fail! These contests are hard, and I entered lots of them and didn't make it before I started finaling in the last couple contests. But the best thing about the contests is that you get feedback from published authors, and it really helps with improving writing. I know my writing's gotten so much better because of the feedback I've gotten.

      So just keep trying! And I'm pretty sure the only time you can actually fail at writing is when you give up. It's not really a pass/fail thing.

  9. Thanks for doing the contest! :) I do have a question about the rewards points. If I buy one of your books with a gift card, does it still count as me buying it, as in, I get the points? :D And do I get points for participating in the contest? I thought I did, but I wanted to make sure I had it right.

    1. Purchase with gift cards certainly counts! And points will just be rewarded to the winners of the contest.

    2. Ok, thanks, Mrs. Morrill! :D I would've bought the same books I'm planning to now, but if I got points with them that is pretty cool.

    Thank you so much for hosting the contest, Stephanie and Jill!!!! Some people have been posting their entries on the Facebook group, and I have no idea how you chose the finalists, all the entries I've seen were so good!
