QUICK SUMMARY OF Call for PERSONAL STORies - fall 2024
Here is the theme for the fall 2024 Personal Story Publishing Project.
Please write in 750-800 words a personal story resonating with our theme, “Foolhardy”—personal stories of derring-do, desperation, and disaster—or not.
These are personal stories of choosing and consequence when safety and satisfaction were at play.
No fiction. You may share a story of someone close to you or an ancestor whose story you know well.
Email your story as an attachment by June 30, 2024 to PersonalStoryPP@gmail.com . Please include your name and mailing address at the end of your story. A nominal reading fee (lower for earlier submissions) may be paid by mailing a check or paying online. (See "Books & DVDs" in the main menu. Click on the icon labeled "Personal Story Publishing Project - fall 2024" to add it to your cart. Pay on our secure commerce portal. See "Contact Us" for mailing address if sending check.)
Each of our collections includes 40-50 stories by as many writers. Writers may purchase copies at a discounted price. No purchases of books are required to be selected. We are interested in championing new voices and helping writers get their stories in print.
