Are you a writer who is up for a challenge? Well, it's the perfect time of year to spend time with loved ones ...and write love stories! We want to see how creative you can be by writing your best love story, but there's a catch — your story can only be one sentence long. Think you can do it?

The winner and honorable mentions will have their story published in Teen Ink magazine. The overall winner will also receive a $25 Amazon gift card!
