Taking Submissions

Please consider submitting a piece of your fine work (1500 words or less) to The Birth Project. Deadline for the next issue is September 15th.
We are also looking for poetry, photos, birth stories, etc.

To find out more, go to www.thebirthproject.com

We're actually in the process of improving the website, and once it's up, we'll have a Submissions Wish List. On that wish list are some topics that are not all hearts and unicorns.
There's loss, miscarriage, struggles of the first year post partum, adoption, and much more that we're looking for. That's not to say we're looking for hard stories only, but the point of The Birth Project is to empower women, to give them a voice, to offer options for birthing, and to help everyone feel like they're doing the best they can with what they have.

If you are a birth junkie reading this blog, please pass this on.
Our zine is new (it only came out in January), but we're doing pretty well despite our newness. We have nearly 100 subscribers from all over North America, a few in the UK.
If you have an online business, you might consider advertising with The Birth Project.
Check out the website, and if you want a free issue, all you have to do is shoot us an email with your address and we'll send one your way ASAP!

*We're a poor zine. We can only pay for printed submissions with a free issue or two. It's all for the greater good, though. Birth bloggers and anyone who knows someone who's been pregnant before (ask your Mama!), check us out and help us pack another issue full of great stuff!
