Houston non-profit turns kids into published authors
A Houston non-profit is holding a publishing contest for kids.

iWRITE is a Houston non-profit that holds a contest every year, allowing students in the 3rd-12th grades to submit short stories for a chance to become published. Sixty-five authors are chosen each year to be part of an anthology, "I Write Short Stories for Kids by Kids." The books are sold at Amazon and by Barnes & Noble.

Winners will also get the chance to walk the red carpet at a book signing celebration in downtown Houston.

The deadline for the iWRITE contest is May 31. To enter, click here.
