An Opportunity

Dear Writers,

I have been hiding out in my cave for the last few weeks. During this time, I did some reading, some writing, some editing, some construction work, and...

I met Chris Palmore, a friend of a friend of mine, who has been working on inspiring others for years,  interviewing people, making videos and podcasts, and writing about gratitude. Now, Chris is working on making an anthology. His anthology is theme specific: It's all essays and letters about gratitude.

As you know, anthologies provide excellent opportunities for readers and writers to connect. I asked Chris if I could share his link with my friends in the #WritingCommunity. I thought it would help anyone who would like to contribute and get published and/or anyone who would be interested in being a part of this wonderful project. He agreed and said he'd be grateful.

Chris's goal is to collect essays / letters of gratitude in these eight categories:

1. a lesson learned and the person who taught you the lesson

2. a thing/object you're grateful for and the story behind it

3. something that was a struggle before and that you are grateful for now thanks to how you reacted to the struggle based on your perception, perspective, and choice

4. letter to a person who has died

5. things that others take for granted that you now have and are grateful for

6. things that you've been taking for granted that you've now become grateful for

7. pets you're grateful for

8. someone from your past you're grateful for and haven't expressed gratitude to
