I've just written a piece about how I met my Cariad as my entry for this call for submissions. The project sounds interesting, if any other woman fancies a go:
SHE SAID, SHE SAID: Selected Essays from Enlightened Eves to Clueless Adams
(What Women Really Talk About Behind Closed Doors)Coming in the Fall of 2008, women around the world speak out in the controversial and eye-opening anthology,
SHE SAID, SHE SAID. Tired of volume after volume on what men absolutely have to have to be satisfied with the women in their lives, we decided it was time to flip the script. Since men selectively listen, we've selected essay prompts designed to push the envelope and help them find their way inside from the dog house. Now all they have to do is roll over, sit up and pay attention...just like Spot.Ladies, bring it and your essay could be chosen for SHE SAID, SHE SAID.
In 2000-3000 words, respond to the essay prompt that speaks to you. What we'd especially like to see is a well
written narrative account of your experience, along with commentary on how you overcame your dilemma and
the positive lesson(s) you learned because of it. Try to refrain from male-bashing, please. We want our audience to personally connect with you and the message you're conveying. Of course, an epiphany or two would be nice, as well. Write to answer the question, "What do women really want?" Be as witty, satirical and/or humorous as you dare!
Second round of submissions accepted January 15, 2008 - May 15, 2008. Email submission(s), including a
brief bio and contact information to editors@brownreclusebooks.com. Please note: essay text must be
pasted into the body of the email, as attachments will not be opened. All (female) Writers Welcome!
