Attention artists and writers! Anthrocon is currently seeking submissions for our 2008 conbook. Pink happy

The Anthrocon 2008 conbook is a great opportunity to showcase your work. We are currently seeking submissions of artwork, fiction, photography, and articles for publication. We welcome any submissions of most any nature, although priority may be given to works that complement the theme of the convention, ‘It’s a Jungle Out There.’ Submissions should be in the 'G' to 'PG-13' rating.

Anthrocon is also having a drawing for everyone who submits material to the convention book. The prize? Nothing less than an 'honorary' Super-Sponsorship! You will get all the Super-Sponsor perks: Shorter registration line, Convention T-shirt, a super-sponsor only meal with our guests of honor, and a special gift that only the super-sponsors receive. This package is valued at $175.00.

Remember, your submission (and release form) must be received no later than April 30, 2008 to be eligible for the drawing. Winners will be randomly selected on May 1, 2008. The winners will be notified by e-mail (or snail-mail, if an e-mail address is not available) immediately after the drawing is held.

Members of the Anthrocon Board of Directors are not eligible for this drawing, but everyone else is welcome. If the winner already has purchased a membership, the alternate prize offered will be a free upgrade to super-sponsor status. Prizes may not be applied against future years, and must be claimed for the 2008 convention.

For complete guidelines and release form, check out the Anthrocon Conbook Submission Guidelines page at http://www.anthrocon.org/conbook

We look forward to hearing from you! Pink whoohoo

I have three stories in the works, but just in rough draft form for now.

My upcoming graduate thesis defense at the end of the month kinda has top priority now. Sticking out tongue

I wouldn't mind adding a little something to the conbook. Hell, just being a part of it would be a prize to me...the mini-contest thing would simply be a perk. I just have one question, though...is there a story length limit I should be aware of? I mean, I know it's short stories you're looking for...but if you can toss out an average length for me to go on, that'd be a huge help. I'm already thinking 5-6 pages in Word at one inch margins would suffice...but an idea of average length would let me specify what the story should focus on, other than the "It's a Jungle Out There" theme. ^^

Thanks in advance.
