<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'><p class="MsoNormal">I am sponsoring an unusual backlog scribal competition at
Ymir, open to all artisans – including those who do not consider themselves
scribes! There will be two categories,
one for traditional scribal materials and formats (paper/parchment/vellum/bristol/etc. and paints/inks), and another for
non-traditional materials which can include but is not limited to wood, stone,
leather, stained glass, and fiber arts.
Paint or ink on a non-traditional surface is acceptable for this
category as is carving, embossing, embroidery, or other form of recording
wording/decorative art for a “scroll.”
Both categories will be held to the same expectations of content:<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p>
