The Terry Writing Challenge: Season Three.

The UBC Bookstore and Terry are pleased to announce our third annual writing challenge. Like before, there will be three sets of prizes available, which involve the hunt for pieces in the following categories:
Pieces should be no longer than 2000 words, and can happily be something you have to write anyway for your courses, or even that blog post you composed that you were particularly proud of.. The deadline for submissions is March 31st, 2008. Previously published material (where permission is obtained) is o.k. although may be considered less competitive than original works. Please inquire with specifics regarding audio or visual pieces.
Note that the author retains full copyright of any work published on our site, although we would love to be credited with showing it off. Oh yes, all of this, please send to toterry@interchange.ubc.ca, subject heading “Terry.”
In all categories, we are please to have a first, second, and third prize available (that’s nine prizes in total), in the sums of $350, $100, and $50.

I suggest that you should also accept submissions of pictures of visual artwork including painting, sketches and sculptures that are inspired from science and nature. I don’t know if you already have that.
Hi Churmy,
Visual and audio creative pieces are welcomed. We’ve had some in the past, and it’ll be great to see more.
Where is the list of previous participants/winners?
Hi Katherine,
Last year’s winners can be found here
The title is misleading. It should be renamed as “Terry’s Creative Stuff Challenge”. Oh and maybe you can hold an exhibition at a gallery with some of the submitted works.
[…] I’m sitting here checking out submissions for the Terry Writing Challenge, and admittedly it seems a little slow going. This is particularly true when it comes to creative […]
An exhibition is definitely in the works. Terry is currently having a few art pieces done as part of a collaboration between a fine art class and Terry. If you want to check it out it is currently displayed at the Boulevard Cafe on University Boulevard. It won’t be there for much longer since it will be replaced by a photo exhibit on AIDS for the UBC Aids Week (Week of November 19, 2007).
[…] Anyway, today, we’re announcing a small writing contest, where the prize happens to be a children’s book (this is our third book in as many months). The details are as follows. Hope some of you might have a hankering for squid books as well as bookstore giftcards. […]
