DYSLEXIC ADVANTAGE ISSUE 111 MARCH 2025 NEWSLETTER
Contents
Congratulations to the Karina Eide Young Writers Award winners of 2025 and the the generous donors and volunteers who made this awards program possible!
Tremendous thanks to Philip Schultz and Monica Banks of Writers Studio, the Original School of Creative Writing and Thinking, and Preston Ausbrook and
The Daily Thinker.
We had another record-breaking year and this year's entries made us laugh and cry with every emotion in-between. Thank you students, but also parents, teachers, and tutors who encouraged these talented young people.
There are so many talents and gifts evident in these writers - vivid imagination, humor, empathy and sensitivity, storytelling, word play, subtle use of metaphor, and so much more. The verbal strengths of dyslexic students may be overlooked because the physical process of writing can be so hard - but gifts are a treasure!
- Congratulations to all ! Fernette Eide
** If you plan on reading these award-winning entries with young students, read them fully first to determine if they appropriate for your child. Every effort was made to make all entries family-friendly, but some works may not be well-suited for all listeners or readers.
These awards were dedicated to
our beautiful daughter Karina who
loved weaving imaginative stories
and encouraging others.
