The Best Teen Writing of 2006
anthology, featuring selected award recipients from The Scholastic
Writing Awards of 2006, was released in Nashville, Tennessee at the
National Council of the Teachers of English conference. The anthology
was edited by Amanda Blue Gotera, a sophomore at Grinnell College
who earned a Gold Award for her writing portfolio in The Scholastic
Writing Awards of 2005. As recent alum of The Awards selecting the
works to be highlighted, Amanda has enabled the Alliance to showcase
the authentic voices of our nation's best teenage writers as determined
by one of their own.
Drawn from more than 400 nationally recognized manuscripts, the 250-page paperback book features student award recipients' work in a wide array of genres, styles and subjects. Highlighted works are available to view from our virtual gallery.
