FCWC 2023! Let's Start With a Contest!

Mature Living Writing Contest Info
Lifeway, publisher of Mature Living Magazine, is offering a contest just for our FCWC conferees. You must be a registered conferee to enter. Mature Living’s target readers are men and women 55+. ML is beautifully produced and serves 300K readers around the world.
The assignment is for the Recollection column. As the title suggests, the focus is looking back on our lives. Winners will be selected to have their childhood story in a future ML issue. The story should focus on a memory that impacted your life in Christ in a positive way. Younger writers are encouraged to write about the impact of a grandparent or an older family member who made a difference in their life.
· 600-700 words.
· Please use the CSB version of the Bible
· Times New Roman font, 12pt.
· All entries must be submitted to Deb DeArmond via email no later than August 1, 2023, at [e-mail]
· After careful consideration, Deb will select seven “semi-finalists.” Those entries are then sent the editor at Mature Living.
· The Mature Living editor will make the final decision for those authors selected. She will notify and contact the finalists, letting them know their article has been chosen for publication. She will request they complete a statement of faith for vetting purposes.
· Winners receive a contract for publication with an honorarium of $100.
Please direct your questions to our contest coordinator, Deb DeArmond, at the email address above. Remember, you must be registered for Florida Christian Writers Conference 2023 to qualify.
