Cambridge University is delighted to be working with the BBC and First Story in the Young Writers’ Award for 2019. If you are aged 14 to 18 and love writing, why not enter your story of up to 1000 words? We welcome stories on any subject. If you are looking for inspiration, this virtual treasure trove of books, manuscripts and objects from Cambridge University Library could provide a spark so [follow this link to take a look around](https://exhibitions.lib.cam.ac.uk/ywa/case/gallery/).
