Enter the Betwixt a Rock and an Ad Space: The Betwixt Ad Design Contest!

We want YOU to design our online ad campaign for Tara Bray Smith’s novel BETWIXT.

Why?

Because it’s summer and we still have to go to work every day, but you have the summer off (presumably), which means you should have plenty of free time to design an ad on your computer.

Plus it’s going to be fun! The winning ad will be featured on this and possibly other websites, such as InTouchWeekly.com, HotTopic.com, CuteOverLoad.com, or Facebook.com.

Imagine, your creative work will be seen by millions of people all over the world!

Here’s what you need to do:

1. Get creative!
Use your photography, drawing, illustrating, and painting skills to create some images that will go in the ad.

2. Be original!
Please don’t take anyone else’s artwork or copyrighted material from the internet (or anywhere else) unless you have their permission. You will be disqualified if you do.

3. Words, words, words!
Show off your literary skills by writing a killer tagline. Simple and compelling usually works best. Remember: “Brevity is the soul of wit.” -Shakespeare

4. Design it!
Get all of your materials onto the computer and spin your Photoshop magic. Design your ad according the dimensions and size requirements listed below.*

5. Send it off!
Post your ad to your website, blog, MySpace page, etc. and send us the link. OR you can just email it to us.

6. Don’t be greedy!
Tell your friends about the contest. It will be more fun that way when you get to see each other’s work.

*AD SPECIFICATIONS - Please use these dimensions, file sizes, and formats when designing your ad:

DIMENSIONS: 300 pixels wide by 250 pixels high
SIZE: 500 KB maximum
FORMAT: JPEG or GIF only

The contest begins June 11, 2007 and ends August 31, 2007. Any entries sent to us after August 31, 2007 won’t be considered, SO DON’T DELAY!

GOOD LUCK!

BETWIXT: The Novel [07 Jun 2007|05:32pm]
[ mood | artistic ]
[ music | always ]

For three seventeen-year-olds, dark mystery has always lurked at the corner of the eyes and the edge of sleep.

Beautiful Morgan D’Amici wakes in her meager home, with blood under her finger nails. Paintings come alive under Ondine Mason’s violet-eyed gaze. Haunted runaway Nix Saint-Michael sees halos of light around people about to die. At a secret summer rave in the woods, the three teenagers learn of their true origins and their uncertain, intertwined destinies. Riveting, unflinching, and beautiful, Betwixt is as complex and compelling as any ordinary reality.
