YOUNG AUTHORS


YOUNG AUTHORS is the name of a new electronic journal which
hopes to publish works by world-wide authors in middle, junior
high, and high school (generally ages 11-18).


The editors of YOUNG AUTHORS are seeking original works in
any genre or form; there are no limitations.  The editors will work
with authors whose work receives a favorable review but may need
some revision before publication.  CASH PRIZES will be awarded
to the top three works published in each journal issue.  Again these
works might be of any type or length.  All published authors, and
their school library, will receive a hard copy of the journal issue.
The electronic version will be widely distributed on the Internet.


The editors plan to publish 5 times per year; however, final
decisions will be determined by the response to each call for
manuscripts.


SUBMISSION DEADLINE:  Authors' works are accepted at any
time.  Each issue has a deadline for submission.  The next deadline
is MARCH 31, 1994 for the issue to be published on April 30,
1994.  This first issue will have the following cash prizes:
        Best Manuscript:  $50
        Second Place:  $30
        Third Place:  $20


If you miss the deadline, submit anyways.  If it is too late for the
next issue, your manuscript will be considered for the next issue.
Future Issue dates:  July 31 and November 30.  We will increase the
number of issues if submissions warrant.
