Intergeneration Storytelling Contest 2011

http://www.intergenerationday.org/storyboard.html

International Storytelling Contest asks you to tell a story that involves your parents, grandparents, great-aunt, distant cousin or black-sheep uncle. Everyone has family stories that cover humor, horror, incredulous events, sympathy and sorrow. It's what makes families bond, split, develop personality. Just tell the story about multiple levels of your family, showing the interaction in all its glory and flaws.

Write a story, poem or song (fiction, non-fiction, or a combination). Feature characters from at least two generations. One illustration, such as a drawing or photograph may be included and will be considered when judging the entry. Writing suggestions include, but are not limited to:

◦Stories from an older person, like a grandparent, you have heard.
◦Stories you think you might tell your children or grandchildren.
◦Stories from history.
◦Stories from different cultures.
