Welcome to our new group, ! This group focuses on the ancient cultures all over the world. To help kick things off here, we are going to hold a contest where you can win PM's, points, and other prizes.
The contest theme will be " Gods & Goddesses ". You can only submit one entry of visual art ( sorry, no literature), so try to make it a good one! You can choose to portray one god or goddess, or include one of each in your entry if you like.

Hmmm....well, I'm not sure yet. I've sent ATCs and postcards there before without a problem, but not a package. I will go check the USPS website to see if there are any restrictions and get back to you shortly.

Well, I would like to join. I think that I would like to write an essay about the god/goddess, so there will be all info included. Your group is very interesting and I think that I might be able to feed it with photography and literature (if you would accept me). I am from Central Europe (there is no embargo I think) and I have no issues with my mailing address but I do not know what to begin with the package prize (I cannot draw that is the reason).
I like to take part in first line because of the fun it will bring and I see the non-package prize as some kind of motivation.

Although we would love for you to share your works of literature with the group, this contest is for visual art work only. I stated the work could be in any medium, but it meant things such as drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, digital, etc. I guess I didn't clarify this well enough. I will have to edit the description to make this more clear. Thank you.
