Pass the Pen

Help us write a story this summer! We've given you the beginning. Now it's your turn to fill in what comes next.

Each week, you'll have the chance to submit 100-150 words of what happens with Piper. We'll pick our favorite (or maybe let the Spark Squad help choose) and post the next paragraphs on our social media and www.SparklerMagazine.com.

July 1 - Pass the Pen kicks off

Submission deadlines are each Monday. On the following Wednesday, we'll post the next part of the story.

Pass the Pen will continue through July and August...or until the story hits a great conclusion!
