Faro, Algarve Oct 10, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - British author and eco builder Marc Swift, known as The Beekeeper Writer, has announced the launch of The Young Storyteller Quest, a global creative writing competition inspiring children aged 7–12 to write their own stories and see them published.
The winning story will be completed, illustrated and published in collaboration with Marc and his daughter Leila, the inspiration behind the Leila’s Light series. Proceeds from the winner’s book will be donated to a charity of the winner’s choice.
“The Quest is about showing children that their imagination matters,” says Marc. “Every story begins with a single idea, and we want to prove that creativity and kindness can still change the world.”
Sponsored by The Beekeeper Writer, the campaign connects literature, creativity and environmental awareness, blending the values of storytelling and sustainability through Marc’s other eco projects such as Mel da Terra, his artisan honey brand.
