Imagination rules the World!

20 April 2007

The Young Writers’ Away With Words competition is entered by thousands of school children nationwide.  Budding young writers enter their poems hoping that maybe, just maybe, their poem will be picked out of the thousands and published.  Imagine, your work, chosen from thousands!  What are the chances?

For 17 Girls’ Model pupils, it’s not a work of imagination….it’s reality!  Their poems have been published in the Co. Antrim version of Away With Words.  The poems cover such diverse topics as ‘bullying’ and ‘homelessness’.  All are truly inspirational and give us something to think about.  Congratulations girls, you deserve this fantastic reward for all your hard work.  Keep on writing!

The published poets are: Jennifer Sanlon, Jade Smyth, Tanya Todd, Gina Hearst, Beverly Hunter, Lauren Braiden, Leah Holland, Emma Crowther, Tammy Cushley, Demi-Louise Irwin, Amy Phillips, Hollie Smith, Victoria Ferguson, Kirsty Brown, Lauren Spence, Rachel McClure and Naomi Morrison.

Away With Words is available from bookshops for £14.99
