YALSA and Figment have teamed up for an awesome contest in celebration of Teen Tech Week! Teens can write a 750-word essay on how to use a made-up steampunk apparatus on Figment and win an e-reader. 

Sourcebooks Inc. and Ty Drago, author and publisher of the new The Undertakers: Rise of the Corpses, announced a drawing contest for anyone aged 8+. The rules are simple: draw in black and white OR color, a rotting cadaver pretending to be a normal person. The winner will receive a signed Advanced Reading Copy of The Undertakers: Rise of the Corpses. He or she will also have her winning drawing displayed on the front page of the Undertakers website. Contest runs from March 1 through March 31, 2011. For more information, visit www.myTeenFire.com. (thanks to Patti Blount from Durand for this information)
