Pen To Paper 2026 Magazine Submissions

About this event

Calling teen writers and artists! Pen To Paper, the magazine of SCPL's Teen Writing Club, seeks submissions for the 2026 edition. Whether you're a poet, budding novelist, cartoonist, painter, photographer, or all of the above, we want to see your work. Submissions may be dropped off in hard copy to the Children's Desk at the Main Library or submitted to our online hub using a QR code--look for posters with the code at your library location! Writing submissions should not be longer than 2,000 words. Please upload digital submissions as .jpg or .png files for art and photography, and .docx files for writing. Our submissions period runs October 1 through December 1, 2026.
