Mormonad

Hi,
I learned from this website that our youth can create mormonads and then submit them. Any ideas on how to submit and where to send them? I would love to know. Thanks for any help!

In the front cover of the New Era is this:

Quote:

Editorial Offices:
New Era
50 E. North Temple St. Rm. 2420
Salt Lake City, UT 84150-3220, USA

E-mail address: [email protected]

Please e-mail or send stories, articles, photos, poems, and ideas to the address above. Unsolicited material is welcome. For return, include a self-addressed, stamped envelope.

I imagine this is the correct address. One of the kids in our local high school submitted an idea that was used by the New Era, so I know that they do use reader-submitted ideas. They even used a photograph of him in the print version of the poster!

Here is an article about Mormonads and what makes a good one.

Here’s a quote from another article

You Can Make a Mormonad!

Putting together a Mormonad is a great way to spend an activity night with your class or quorum or your entire Mutual group. Here are some pointers for winning ideas:

* Work in small groups instead of on your own. That way everyone can contribute in the areas where they have the most strength.

* Talk about your idea before you put pen to paper. Have a brainstorming session and give every idea a chance before you decide what you’re going to do.

* Don’t worry about elaborate art; just make sure that the person or object in the picture is clear and easy to understand.

* After you are through, post the Mormonads in a place where others can enjoy them–classrooms, the seminary room, etc.

* If you think you have a particularly good idea, send it to the New Era–we might buy it from you! However, even if we don’t buy your idea (we often get duplicate ideas, or ideas that won’t work for our format) keep trying. Making a Mormonad is a great way to think about gospel basics and what makes them important.
