Write To Us: Write a short story!

In this week’s Know Ohio, Mary shares a brief biography of one of Ohio's most famous authors!

Toni Morrison is an African-American author born in Lorain in 1931. Her first novel, The Bluest Eye, was set in Toni's hometown, Lorain, and told the story of a young black girl who wishes for blue eyes and white skin, something Toni did herself as a child.

Maybe our next great author is one of our viewers?

Well, for our write-to-us this week, we want you to write a short story!

But we have a special challenge for you, we want your stories to be in the genre of historic fiction. Your story can be set in any era.

Students can use our inbox form to send in their stories.


Teachers and parents,

We care about keeping your students safe online. In order for a video or audio response that features your students to be included online or on-air, they must have a media consent/release form completed on file at their school. OR you can fill out Ideastream Public Media's  Participant Release Form online.
