SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

DEADLINE September 30, 2022

BE HONEST

Even if it isn't pretty. Your truth is beautiful and you owe it to yourself to be truthful about your experiences as you experienced it.

BE THOROUGH

The readers of the published book will become a part of your tribe, but they don't know you yet. Give as much information as necessary. There is no word limit.

BEGIN HEALING

 A lot of our experiences are associated with trauma. We want to hear your story as you experienced it, and we want you to begin to heal in the process.

All stories submitted will be shared in the project. Upon submission, the publication team will review your submission and reach out to you regarding any necessary edits. There is no limit to the number of essay submissions you submit for the project.

If you are struggling to write out your story, please use the submission form to contact us. We can schedule an audio interview to be dictated for the book.
