Especially now, in this (post?) COVID world, when so many of us have lost so much. But this isn&#8217;t a theme about COVID grief (though you can certainly write about that); this is a theme about the grief that is with us now, the grief that was with us long ago, and the grief that grows with us. Don&#8217;t be afraid to bring us broken, heavy stories. We can handle it.<\/p>\n<p>** HerStry is always happy to share stories anonymously\u2014if your story is selected for publication, simply let your editor know you would not like your name shared **<\/p>\n<p><strong>THE RULES:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>All stories must be true and about you.<\/li>\n<li>Stories must follow the theme in some way, interpretations can be wide.<\/li>\n<li>Stories must stay around 3,000 words.<\/li>\n<li>Documents should be double spaced, 12Pt font with 1 inch margins and in an easy to read font.
