Directions
As we set our sights on the new year, it’s time to reflect on what life means to us. How does it make us feel, the emotions it places upon our hearts, good or bad? Chapbook Volume VII centers on the theme “Life” and how it relates to you.
Is it:
- A memory,
- religious experience,
- an emotional experience,
- finding love,
- a story we can all relate to,
- or maybe just the realities you face daily?
No matter what it may be, submit your piece and let us see what life means to you.
