For those interested, here were the original guidelines:
The Creative Coping Blog is an online literary blog where
people in chronic pain can share their writing with others. I will publish
works as I receive them.
General Guidelines:
1. I ask that
only people who are living or have lived with chronic pain submit their work.
2. I accept
poetry, creative nonfiction (including essays), and fiction related to chronic
pain. These pieces do not have to be exclusively descriptions of physical
aspects of chronic pain, but should relate to chronic pain in some way.
3. Please e-mail
all submissions, in the form of an attached word document, to:
4. In an effort to respect patient privacy, I am giving participants the option to either remain anonymous or take credit for the writing that will be published. If you would like to take credit for your writing, please include a brief
(approximately 200 word) biography in your e-mail. If you would like to remain
anonymous, please indicate that in the e-mail.
5. Indicate in
the e-mail the title and genre of each selection.
6. Submit up to four
original pieces of writing.
7. I do not accept
previously published work.
8. Submission lengths:
Poetry: 800
words or less
Creative
nonfiction: 15 pages or less
Fiction: 15
pages or less
If your work is accepted, it will appear on both the front
page and the “published writing” page of this blog. I will also notify you via
e-mail, and I will ask for your approval of any editorial changes I make before I publish it.
As this blog is part of an honors undergraduate project, any
work that is published on the blog may be shown or discussed at academic
meetings. For more information about this project, please see the about this project page.
Thank you for your submissions. I could not accomplish this
project without your support, and I greatly appreciate each submission.
