Teens and the Inauguration: Let Your Voices Be Heard!

Posted by Laura L. Johnson Jan 24, 2009

I'm tired of the same old Inauguration coverage - I really am. It's not that I'm tired of people talking about it- it deserves to be discussed. I am, however, tired of the same tired old views on it. So I challenge you, blossoming teen writiers, to share your feelings on the inauguration!

If you are currently in high school, you will probably vote in the next presidential election - your thoughts are valid and the rest of the world needs to hear them. Even those budding fiction writers: create a short story somehow tied into the inauguration!

I had the distinct priviledge of attending the Inauguration, along with 70 of my high school students, and it was an amazing experience. They had such unique and poignant things to say that I wish the whole world could have heard.

Step up, teen writers, and let us know what you think! Put on your blog, write it up for a school assignment, make it a note on your Facebook - LET YOUR VOICES BE HEARD!
