#50PRECIOUSWORDS 2024 Contest 

It’s time for one of the most fun kid lit contests! The #50PreciousWords contest is run by Vivian Kirkfield challenges writers to come up with a full story in only 50 words. I wasn’t planning on entering this year, but my son said something about robots eating pizza and suddenly a story was in my head. I managed to clock in at 49 words! Please enjoy my entry below, and head over to Vivian Kirkfield’s website to read all the entries. Good luck to all of us!

“Do Robots Dream of Electric Cheese (And Pepperoni)?” by Judy Campbell-Smith

Jamie flipped a switch. Beep! Boop! His robot sparked to life.

“FUEL REQUIRED.”

Jamie brought a bowl of batteries.

“YUCK.”

Jamie whipped up wires in a wok.

“ERROR.”

Jamie served a saucer of circuits.

“NOPE.”

Then Jamie had an idea. He plated up a piping hot pizza.

“INPUT ACCEPTED.”
