Writing Ilustration Competition

Hello MFAers,

I came across a competition seeking unpublished writers and illustrators of children books for a statewide juried competition, the 2008 Tassy Walden Awards for New Voices in Children's Literature.

When I saw the listing for the competition in the Hartford Courant, the first thing I thought about was the presentation we had by Karen Romano Young on publishing children's work.

Guidelines for the contest may be downloaded from the Shoreline Arts Alliance website, http://www.shorelinearts.org/ (click on programs and scroll down to Tassy), by calling the office at 203.453.3890, or by emailing at donita@ShorlineArts.org.

Barnes and Noble is a major sponsor and the submission deadline for manuscripts and portfolios is Feb. 13, 2008.

Good luck.

Aaliyah
