How to Submit your story.

[hiomelissa]

Thank You Heather for prompting this post!

Here is detailed information on how to submit you story.

The Help Inspire Others project is a project geared towards people who have personally experienced- Single Parenting, Abortion, Adoption, Miscarriage, Stillbirths, and Teenage Pregnancy. You can write, paint, draw, take a photograph, write a poem, a paragraph, one sentence....etc... about those topics. You can write about the emotions you felt, how you got through it, advice for others, etc. The possibilities are endless. The stories are then being compiled into one work, a book to help others. Part of the proceeds will be donated to organizations that deal with those specific life issues. I'm already in the works of creating a non-profit organization to help other men and women. Please help me out by submitting YOUR story. Here's how your story can get to me.

Your story can find me one of three ways- Please be advised you will need to provide a mailing address so I can mail you the release packet. If you chose to submit your story I will need your written consent. The packet includes two release forms that must be signed and *notarized. It also includes two other sheets to be filled out. I will send with it a self addressed stamped envelope for you to mail the documents back to me. There is also a couple of small thank you gifts included with this packet. When I receive your packet back and it is correctly filled out, I will then mail your $5.00 check for returning the release forms. If you are under the age of 18 you will need written parental or guardian consent.

*Notarizing means that you will need to sign the official legal documents in front of a notary public. A Notary Public is a legal witness. They will watch you sign the documents then they will sign it and stamp it. It is Usually free at your local bank and public library. If there is a fee it is very small. If you have any questions about the Notarizing process please ask!*

if we email you our story do we still need to get the packet?

[hiomelissa]

Yea. Due to the nature of this project I can't include your story into the book without the legal documents. For legal purposes this is the way it has to be done. The packet includes official terms and conditions and the legal paperwork and two other forms- You may chose to be anonymous when the story gets published. If you don't want to have the packet mailed to your home address you could always use another address, a friends- a work address- another family members address. As long as you can receive the packet. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Melissa!
