Not too long ago, Susan Heim, parenting author and Chicken Soup for the Soul editor, told me about a great writing opportunity. She knew it would be of interest to the readers of Adventures in Freelancing, so I'm passing it on to you. This installment of the ever-popular series promises to be of interest to all. Chicken Soup for the Soul: All in the Family will be a compilation of stories about the most eccentric and memorable family members around.
We all have one. At least one. I'm sure I can think of a family member to write about. What about you? Is there a member of your family you'd love to write about? Your submission can be humorous or serious. Essays and poems will be considred, as long as the subject matter is true. The editors want to show readers the quirky side of families and that everyone has interesting relatives.
Go to the Chicken Soup for the Soup website to learn more about submitting your story. The deadline for submissions is June 30, 2009. If your entry is chosen for inclusion in the book, you'll receive $200 and 10 free copies of the book. Not to mention the exposure and addition to your resume.
So, tell me, who will you write about?
