You can submit stories of your heroes to MyHero.
“Writers of all ages can publish online tributes to heroes from all walks of life using the MY HERO Create program. This program provides a user-friendly introduction to Web technology and allows great flexibility as writers can access their hero stories from any computer with an Internet connection. At any time, you may save your work and return to it later.
1. REGISTER
The registration page asks for relevant information from Creators, Teachers, Students and Organizations/Partners, such as name, location and email address. This information will not be given to any third party. Students may use a school contact or email address, rather than their own, in the requested field.
2. WRITE YOUR OWN ESSAY
Fill in the Title and Hero Category and then begin writing your story. Add suggested page tags/descriptions for your page. Make sure it is appropriate for all ages, does not promote hatred or violence and that your sources have been properly credited to avoid plagiarism. Work will be
returned if it does not fulfill these guidelines. You are welcome to re-submit your work if you have made the changes required.
Remember: MY HERO’s mission is to celebrate the best of humanity!
