Dear WRHC members and Scribendi liaisons:
As we near the month of December, we’d like to remind you that Scribendi fine art and literary magazine, produced at the University of New Mexico, is still accepting cover design submissions for the 2009 issue. The deadline, December 12, is coming up soon.
We began our cover contest in 2008 in order to give undergraduate honors students from the western region of the U.S. an opportunity to have their designs displayed on an issue of Scribendi. This year we are continuing this tradition, and we need your students’ help!
The design should cover the front, spine, and back of the magazine, and it should include the words Scribendi 2009.
Specifications:
-Works must be 300 DPI
-.tiff and .eps files only
-CMYK color; not RGB
-No file compression
-File must be PC compatible
Cover design submissions may be submitted electronically or through regular mail. The submission form and instructions can be found on our website at Scribendi.unm.edu/Submissions/forms.htm.
Cover designs from previous issues may be viewed at Scribendi.unm.edu/Archives/previouseditions.htm.
In order to be eligible to submit a cover design, students must be undergraduates enrolled in an honors program at a school that is a member of the Western Regional Honors Council. Additionally, the student’s school must have paid its dues to the WRHC for this year. More information can be found at Wrhc.cieja.com/.
With this email we’ve included a cover contest flyer in PDF form that you can use to get the word out to your honors students. We would greatly appreciate it if you’d take a few moments to make copies of the flyer and put them up where your honors students will see them.
If you have any questions or concerns, please email us at Scribendi.unm.edu or call us at (505) 277-7407. Again, the deadline for cover design submissions if December 12. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Scribendi staff 2008-2009
