Your votes found the best true short stories

Great news! Now the best true short stories can be uploaded much easier so you and your child can get them to me even faster. But, there is a big difference.

If your child's story is a good effort and hopefully accompanied by a picture that adds meaning to the story or sets a mood, I will publish the story on its own web page!

Maybe your child has his or her own favourite story already. Let me know. This section is for true stories, so check out what you send because we'll have readers eager to say 'that can't be for real'!

My library lists all of the short story categories

Your own, original, best true short stories can be uploaded to be seen by your friends.

If your original piece meets our simple quality standards, it will get its own web page so your friends and family can comment and vote on it.

Make it good, and it must be original. It will be here for all to see! And when commenting on other stories, if you don't like a certain one, please be constructive, and leave the rude language behind.
