I can’t believe I forgot to do this…. I’m as bad as the people I mean to help.

We’ll announce the winners in this upcoming issue (due out on Saturday), but the actual publication will be a separate special issue accompanying the regular May issue.

Th., that’s okay as long as they won’t physically injure you for doing so. :)

Tyler—I’m older than you? Ah, crap.

Ben—do you allow third-part submissions? By which I mean I often do submissions for my ultralazy but talented friends whom I’m sure you would like to hear from but who are unlikely to press SEND on their own.

Yes, Tyler, previously published work is fine.

Ben:

Can we submit previously published work to the contest? Or does it need to be “fresh”?

And Wm:

You’re not that old, are you? ;)

What’s funny is when I saw the headline, age didn’t occur to me. For me, young writers are those with little writing experience under their belt. Some of you whippersnappers have churned out a lot of words what with your crazy NaNoWriMos and wild Play Projects.

I look forward to the issue. The interviews are great, but I prefer creative written work so it’s good to see Mormon Artist expanding in to these formats.

Haha, the reason for the restriction is that the special issue will be focusing on the upcoming generation of Mormon writers. But don’t worry, we’ll have plenty more contests coming up for you old folk. ;)
