Tempest Fanwork Friday with Tasha

 On behalf of the wonderful and amazing Julie Cross, I am doing a weekly friday fanwork post where the best will revieve a wonderful Tempest prize. Goodie! Anyway, this post is just some basic need to know things so that we can get this post up and running. 

About The Perfect 10’s Resident Artist, Tasha: Personaly I am studying Art and Design and Moving image arts, and I am kind of sad that this is my final year. I want to go on and become an author and would love to create pieces of artwork for gallaries though that is further away than the author dream. 
What is Tempest Fanwork Friday? Well it's your chance to show Julie just how much you love her characters and her book. Get your pens and pencils out or grab your camera and send me your work based on Tempest. The best will be selected and shown on a Friday post. Between myself and Julie, and in some cases the rest of the Perfect 10 the best will recieve a special sighed copy of Tempest. 

 As always there are some rules to follow in order to make sure your work is recieved.
Submission ideas/requirements
