Our vision is to put together the best collection of love stories possible. We are not limiting the definition of “love” and are open to stories that explore the infinite possibilities of love: love between a couple; love between a child and parent; love between a person and a pet. What we are ultimately looking for are well-written stories with strong characters and character development.
Deadline for submission is September 1, 2010. Early submissions are welcome. Please include your bio (approx. 150 words) in people-friendly narrative form, and all contact information (email address, mailing address, telephone number).
ABOUT THE EDITORS: Cecilia Manguerra Brainard is the author/editor of 14 books; Marily Ysip Orosa is the publisher of historical coffee table books. Both Cecilia and Marily have won numerous awards for their literary work. They have collaborated on three other anthologies: Behind the Walls: Life of Convent Girls, the award-winning A La Carte: Food & Fiction, and Finding God: True Stories of Spiritual Encounters, all published by Anvil.
