STITCHED WITH STORIES - SEND IN YOUR NEEDLEWORK STORIES Stitched with Stories will be a collection of stories about stitching, most specifically about needlepoint. The book will be similar to the KnitLit series, and will be available for Summer
2008.You have a great chance to share your love of stitching with others. You can write about how you learned to stitch, a wonderful class, a great canvas, a terrible canvas, teaching others to stitch, what needlepoint means to you ? whatever you like!
Don't worry if you aren't a professional writer, a great story is better than great writing!
If you have a great needlepoint story, I'd like to consider it for the book. The stories should be engaging (so you want to read more). They can be thoughtful, heartwarming, funny, poetic, witty, or even mischievous.
The stories should be to me by May 15, 2008 for consideration and should be
1,000-1,500 words in length. If you have an idea but don't know how to write it, email me with your idea.Email submissions to me at stitchedwithstories @ gmail.com (remove spaces).
If you're a writer and want to submit the story elsewhere, the book is only using first time rights.
Pass this notice along to any stitchers you know, to the folks in your guild , shops you visit, teachers you know, or wherever.
Let's let the world know about our love for stitching!
