I have always been passionate about helping young people discover the power of telling their own stories. Today, I am thrilled to share that @PenguinRandomHouse and @WeNeedDiverseBooks are launching the Michelle Obama Award for Memoir, a new creative writing award focused on memoir writing for public high school students. Apply today for the $10,000 scholarship and the opportunity to learn more about the publishing industry at www.michelleobamabooks.com/scholarship. I want young people everywhere to know that their voices and stories matter!
