Kitkat Male - Adult Looking for a new home By DALI CARMICHAEL After Fort Smith writer Patti-KayHamiltontookhome the top prize in the 2015 Can- ada Writes short nonction contest last year she decided to pay it forward by setting up a similar opportunity to challenge youth in the NWT. A director on the board of NorthWords NWT a group that supports the territorys authors Hamilton ignited SPARK a new writing con- testforyouthinGrades7to12. Partnered with the North- west Territories Power Corp. they announced the contests rst winners last week. Around 100 pieces were submitted from ve regions across the NWT. From there awhittled-downshortlistof14 stories - each 1000 words or less-wassubjectedtothecare- ful eyes of three guest judges includingformerCBCjournal- ist Paul Andrew current CBC radio host Allison Devereaux and award-winning Yellow- knife author Jamie Bastedo. Keelan Kobaissi Junior winner Yellowknife Keelan Kobaissi 13 was awarded the top prize for the junior Yellowknife category. The eighth grader from Wil- liam McDonald School wrote amysticalstorycalledHawaii. It was set almost in the Middle Ages and it was just about a guy who lost every- thing Kobaissi said. There used to be a lot of what he was - he was a wandering willow - and they were burnt down by the humans because they thought they were bad and then he just tells what hap- pened how he got burnt. Kobaissi said he was in- spired by the Lord of the Young authors ignited by new SPARK contest Northwords contest encourages NWT youth to get writing Rings trilogy which he hap- pened to be reading as he was writing his story. This isnt Kobaissis rst story though it is the rst one he submitted to a writ- ing contest. He was shy about sharing his words before but now encourages others to make their talents known. I used to write stories and I used to never show them to anyone he said. I just started off small I showed them to my dad and then Id show it to my brother. Then I entered one into the contest and if I won decided Id show my friends. If youre shy just start off small dont show ev- eryone you know just some- one you can trust. Cody Perry Junior winner outside Yellowknife Paul William Kaeser PWK High School student Cody Perry 14 of Fort Smith was also inspired by JRR Tolkien when he wrote his short story King of Storms. Itsaboutaknightclimbing atowerforunknownreasons andheencountersadragonat the top and its a ght Perry said. The dragon gets struck by lightning and falls off the tower bringing the knight with him but for some rea- son the dragon dies but the knight survives. He ends up nding a wood crown next to the dragon with a knot. While writing the tale he said he learned that writing is a process. The story is al- lowed to evolve and writers dont totally have to stick to their plan. The original plot for the story I wrote was not a dragon it was just a per- son he said. It was just going up an old tower then that was it. Kayla Tulugarjuk Senior winner PWK High School senior Kayla Tulugarjuk 17 wanted to create a unique story when she wrote The Moons Star- ing Back. My story was about a girl who decided that she was in lovewiththemoonshesaid. Itwasaself-reectiononwho she wanted to become and grow to become as a person based on factors in her life. Tulugarjuk said she was in- spiredbyamultitudeoffactors the most prominent being the need to think outside the box.
