Teen art contest – win a scholarship!
Last year I participated as a judge in the Tweener Time International Creativity Competition, a contest that gives teen writers the chance to submit their book manuscripts for prizes including scholarships, publication, and cash. Besides which, they get constructive feedback on their novels from professional writers and teachers and folk of that ilk. Very cool. This post isn’t about the book contest, however (that’s coming later), it’s about the related ART contest. Since I’m short on time today, I’ll just paste in the email sent to me by Tweener Time Ministries:
Here is an awesome opportunity for teens!
January 17 is the deadline for the Tweener Ministries Art Competition.
First place receives a $44,000 scholarship to Anderson University and
has their work published as a book cover.Second and third place receive a partial scholarship to Bethel College
and their work is published as book covers.Go the web site where there is a synopsis of the manuscript. Design
and submit a cover for the book. That’s all there is to it! This year
the nummber of entrants is very low so your chance of winning
is very high!If you have questions, phone Tweener Ministries at 574-269-6100.
Pass this to any student who has graduated 8th grade but has not
graduated high school.PeggySue
January 17 is not a lot of time (I’ve been slow in passing this along), so if you’re interested, I encourage you to check it out. For more information, you can email info AT TweenerMinistries.org or visit www.TweenerMinistries.org.
Hey!
I sent my entry in yesterday, just barely made it!
Thank you so much for letting everyone know about it! =D
That’s great! I hope you do well. (By the way, are you Jim Erskine’s daughter? Welcome to my blog!)
I am!
Thank you very much, I am enjoying it!
I have really, really enjoyed your book too, Worlds Unseen.
[...] I blogged an eleventh-hour post about Tweener Ministries’ cover art competition last month, I didn’t really except one of my readers to win it! Jessica Erskine, a 16-year-old, [...]
Rachel,
Do you have time to review some of the 2007 winners? You may have already posted one for JOURNEY TO THE HOMELAND, the first-place winner.
The fifth-place winner came out last week.

Hi Marvin,
Absolutely — I’d love to. I haven’t had a chance to post my review for “Homeland” yet, but I certainly plan to do so.
