The contest asks the question: "What's your summer passion?" and invites young writers to submit their most compelling answer about what they love to do most, whether it's reading books, writing epic novels, or fine-tuning the art of make-up.

Submissions should be 350-600 words. Entrants must be under the age of 19, Yoursphere membership not required. All entries are due August 17, 2009. Winners will be announced August 21, 2009.
