Contests

Do you have what it takes, to show the world what good writing looks like? Once again, we
welcome our conferees to submit their best work for our writing contests:

Award for Excellence in Christian Literature

The competition is open to everyone who attends the conference who is 15
years of age or older. This time around, we invite you to submit your
unpublished work, up to 5,000 words. A first, second and third place winner
will be selected.

Winners will be announced during the conference in general session and will be
awarded a certificate suitable for framing. Decisions by the judges will be final.
Not responsible for lost or misdirected submissions.

Interested? Prepare your manuscript double-spaced, and make sure your name appears in the
header on every page. Use 12-point Times New Roman font, with one-inch margins on all
sides. Send it by email to robin@theology.edu, attached as a Word compatible (**.doc) file.
Please indicate "contest" on the subject line of your email. One submission per person, no later
than April 4, 2012.

Important -- There is no charge to enter the contest; however, entries will be considered only
with paid enrollment. If you are also submitting a manuscript for critique, be sure to send it
separately.

Screenplay Contest

The Antelope Valley Thespians, a new theater company on the Westside of

town, is looking for original unpublished works by local playwrights. Winning

entries will receive a cash prize of $300, and will have their play performed by

Ratnayake will be on hand to make a presentation and answer questions from

any who might desire to participate. www.avthespians.org
