Story Guideline

Please provide as much detail as you are comfortable with.  We value your privacy, so please don't include too many personally identifiable details (name, address, etc.) in your story itself. Tell your story in a way that will make the reader cry or laugh. Don’t leave anything out (how did you feel?)

The story should start with action; it should include a problem, issue or situation. It should include dialogue and the character should express their feelings though the conflict or situation. It should end in a result, such as a lesson learned, a positive change or pay-off.

Most importantly, write from your heart.
