TeenThink: WTPL Teen Literary magazine is here!!!

The first issue of TeenThink is finished and ready to be enjoyed!!!
You can get to it by going to www.wtpl.org/teens.htm and clicking on the link for TeenThink. Be patient while it downloads! There's a lot of great stuff for it to open!

Thank you to everyone who participated in the literary magazine. I'm so proud of the work that you all did! Thanks!!!

For our next issue we have a creative theme challenge that you can use toinspire your creativity in creating submissions. The theme is "Get Out" which you can interpret any way you'd like (examples: "get outside," "getout and do something," etc. etc. etc.). Of course you can also submit any type of creative work that is NOT centered on this theme. The theme is just to inspire your creativity not hinder it :) Creative work of all types are due by Friday, March 30th to be included inthe next issue of TeenThink.

Again, thanks to everyone who participated!
