Anthology Project

Guidelines

What to submit

For the Speaking In WeÔ UltraShort MemoirÔ Anthology Project submit concise, compact memoir that tells your story,

or a story of your life.  This 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, short, or in this case, UltraShort 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.

UltraShort MemoirÔ is memoir that fits your story into text preferably ranging from about 100 – 300 words; which is roughly a paragraph or two (somewhere in the ball park of 10 sentences, or so).

The UltraShort MemoirÔ may be in any narrative format, so long as its within the 100-300 word range including:

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.

Please submit your best work.

This Speaking In WeÔ UltraShort MemoirÔ 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.
Selected entries will be posted on the forthcoming Speaking In WeÔ UltraShort MemoirÔ Anthology Website www.SpeakinginWe.com
