     Young People�s Press, a national newswire service for young writers ages 13 to 19, is now looking 
for writers across Canada.  It has more than 60 writers in the Greater Toronto Area, but is looking for 
more young people from virtually every part of the country.
     Thomson News Service has agreed to send one article each week to all its member newspapers 
across Canada (circulation 1 million.)    The model for these particular articles is the Fact and 
Arguments column of The Globe and Mail.  Each article is to be about a personal experience or 
contain the personal opinions of the author, on any topic.  The key is it has to be relevant to teenage 
and adult readers across Canada.
     The articles can be no more than 500 words.  Each one published will carry the author�s byline 
and a one or two-sentence biography (Grade, age, school and city.)  Young People�s Press will 
gather and edit the articles, and submit one each week to Thomson News Service.
     YPP is also looking for writers for other publications.  Since January YPP contributors have had 
articles appear in a range of publications, from Canada�s largest newspaper, The Toronto Star, to 
smaller, community newspapers.  Interested young writers can contact Don Curry, YPP 
Editor-in-Chief, at ccsj@onlink.net
