<p>Quick question... obviously I didn't get Nat'l recognition, but on my Regional winner FAQ sheet thingy, it said that more info and a survey would be emailed to me. Did any of you guys ever get this? ...because, I definitely didn't =P</p>
<p>Some people on the board said they got a survey for nationals earlier. I don't know anything about a regionals survey, since I entered for novel, but you might try e-mailing Scholastic and asking them about it. Don't count on them writing back, though.</p>
<p>Just out of curiosity, does anyone know when scholastic posts the names of all the national winners online?</p>
<p>I thought it was sometime in June...?</p>
<p>it says on their website that they post the winners in september...</p>
<p>so who won? (the novel category in the year 2007)</p>
<p>Whats the best category to enter for the first time</p>
<p>Whatever you're best at writing?</p>
<p>Well, what has the best chance of getting a regional level.</p>
<p>Well, if you're talking about writing, you can probably guess at the less popular categories (science fiction/fantasy, journalism) and the most popular ones (short/short short story, poetry, memoir). But your best bet would be to enter multiple categories and see what happens; the results may surprise you.</p>
<p>How many people get awards in each category?</p>
<p>Regionally, no one knows the breakdown for specific categories. You can get an idea of the national numbers by browsing the 2007 gallery: The</a> Scholastic Art & Writing Awards</p>
<p>Thanks mflevity! You've been a big help.</p>
<p>I think Humor's another less-popular one.</p>
<p>I just wrote up my poem and I’m dying to have it read. sigh. Anyone appplying for January ?
Also, I just wanted to apply to four categories. poetry,persuasive essay, he freedom of expression category</p>
