~Anthology Submission Guidelines~

The Short Memoir Anthology Project seeks raw, close to the bone writing about meaningful personal experiences. Share anecdotes that reveal your inner life. However, as with any memoir, no matter if it’s long, or in this case, short memoir there must be some uncovering of whatever wisdom was gained, (however slight) from a backward glance at an era in your life, experiences you’ve undergone, persons in your life, persons you’ve become, lessons learned, etc.

 For this Anthology Project, your Short Memoir may include writing consisting of one or more narrative forms, such as:

prose, poetry, microessays, vignettes, ruminations, lists, dialogues, unsent letters, written portraits of self and/or others, alternative viewpoints of an event, person or situation.

Whatever the form, it must be true.

This Short Memoir Anthology Project seeks memoir that enlightens, entertains and connects with the reader at a basic human level – which usually naturally occurs when one examines ones life with depth, sincerity, and a desire for knowledge and understanding. Entries will be judged on originality, use of language and clarity. Please submit your best work.
