Imagine the emotional release of writing your true feelings. Now imagine getting paid for it.
Winners of the second annual Berbee-Walsh Writing Contest experienced just that this spring. Students from all grades at Perrysburg High School were invited to submit compositions between 200-2,500 words. A major requirement of the contest is that students could not get help from teachers.
