ATTENTION SHORT STORY AUTHORS!

We have 5 story's submitted and a prominent politician is considering writing the preface, I'm excited at the direction and progress of this project!

Seeking submissions for a “Sunday Supper” anthology. 10 to 20 writers are needed for an anthology of “Sunday supper” stories.
The story will be about you and your family at one of the last Sunday suppers together at around 4 to 13 years old. It should combine comedy and limited drama. We also seek two notable authors with “name recognition” to write the prefaceand conclusion (suggestions welcome!).
Proceeds from the book will be divided as follows: 50% up front will go to missions and feeding programs. Suggestions regarding deserving programs are welcome, OR, you may join in a non profit organization to oversee the distribution of funds.

The remaining 50% will be divided equally between all the authors, plus the writers handling the preface and conclusion of the book. There will be no prepayments prior to publication. All expenditures will be available
for study upon request.

Submission requirements: 5 to 8 pages approximately, 5.5 x 8.5 inch size, in black, with half-inch
margins on all sides, in single-spaced 14-point type. Please submit a PDF file for review,
OR
If you do not have a program to submit story's in this form, a simple paste into an email will do.
All submissions will be responded to; submitshortstory@yahoo.com
Please include e-mail address, and whatever personal information regarding your name and state in which you reside. More information will be required if your story is accepted.
Submissions Quickly Please!
I Sincerely Appreciate your consideration of this project.

Do you mean a church supper or a family supper at home? What do you mean by "last" Sunday supper?
