Over the holidays, give yourself some time to reminisce about your grandparents, and, for some of us, perhaps a chance to be with them. Whatever your circumstances, this is a great week to gather your thoughts about your contest submission.

Start to write down any ideas that come to mind. Add to the list as remember the sights, sounds, smells and feelings about your memories.


Take your time and over the next month, pick your favorite adventure. From that point on you will be on your way, and I will encourage you with more pointers over the next few months.


400 words or less! You are already on your way.

Join Maggie on her international adventure!

As her grandparents connect to their ancestral past, Maggie tries to make friends for the future as she travels to her first foreign destination, Argentina.

Maggie reads as much as possible before her trip yet when she arrives in Buenos Aires, she discovers language is just one of the many things she does not know about Latin America. It takes three languages...English, Spanish and German...to tell the story of exotic places, Argentine history and the friends Maggie meets on her exciting new journey.
