Tell us about yourself, your life. Moments where you realized you said the wrong thing, did the right thing, or fell short when you could have stepped up. We want tales of sonder, when you realized the person on the park bench had an entire life you knew nothing about. When were you simply a supporting character? When did you feel like the main character? Give us the dark spaces where your emotions ran rampant and created their own version of what happened. Or: re-tell your favorite fairytale. Your least favorite. What childhood bedtime story touched you the most? Let us peer into your lives in a way only your closest friends do.
