Submissions sought: Nature’s Healing Spirit–a second book
Deadline: June 1, 2018.
Following the successful publication of the first title, Nature’s Healing Spirit: Real Life Stories to Nurture the Soul, Sowing Creek Press again seeks nature submissions included but not limited to the following subjects:
Estrangement
Starting over (after divorce, death, a move, career change, etc)
Grief and loss
Physical illness
Disability
Mental health challenges
Caregiving
Letting go
Forgiveness
Relationships
Recovering from “burnout”
Life transitions
Self-renewal
Relationships
If your theme doesn’t fit one of these categories, consider submitting anyway. If it fits the general theme that nature heals, and it’s a true story from your life, we want to see your work! “Of the essays received for Nature’s Healing Spirit: Real Life Stories to Nurture the Soul, the best writings took the reader’s hand through vivid descriptions of natural settings as well as the writer’s thoughts and emotions. We’re not looking for travelogues. We’re seeking the writer’s experience of nature as it connects to their inner and outer life, and how the natural world plays a part in healing (whether that’s physical, spiritual, or a combination of both).
Guidelines:
If you’ve found comfort, solved a relationship dilemma, uncovered truths, or experienced an epiphany relating to the natural world, share your eye-opener or conclusion reached while in nature by writing an essay for this anthology. Your experiences can help others gain insight too. Readers of Nature’s Healing Spirit books will enjoy escape and healing through others’ experiences. Readers can enter the serenity of nature even on a lunch break and feel a kinship with fellow nature lovers who also do their best thinking in the great outdoors.
One-time payment for published essays: $50.00
One-time payment for poems: $25.00
