  • UNSENT LETTERS SUBMISSIONS – ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIPS

We are compiling some of our very best Unsent Letters about abusive relationships for a very special print edition of Unsent Letters, in which a portion of all the proceeds from the sales of Unsent Letters will be donated to shelters for abused children, or other domestic violence prevention programs.

If you have a letter with an ‘abuse’  angle to it, either to the abuser, the abused, or any other person where abuse is the primary theme of the letter, please submit that letter with the special subject line: Unsent Letters Submissions – Abusive Relationships. While some of these letters will be published on the blog, we are primarily focused on high quality, emotive letters for inclusion in the anthology.

  • UNSENT LETTERS SUBMISSIONS – THE ‘OTHER’ WOMAN

This collection is going to be for letters about cheating – we’re focusing on the ‘other woman’ in this one, so either we want a letter to the other woman or a letter from the other woman. Who writes the letter to the other woman can be anyone who has a vested interest in writing to her: a husband, a wife, a grown child of someone who was cheated on, a casual observer, a friend, or an interested party.

Be sure to put: UNSENT LETTERS SUBMISSION – OTHER WOMAN

in the subject line of the email. Follow all other submission guidelines.

  • UNSENT THANK YOU LETTERS

Who said all Unsent Letters have to be bad, sad, or angry? They don’t! Here is your chance to send a thank you letter to someone you can’t really send to. Maybe it’s the waitress who made your day a little brighter. Maybe you want to thank your husband for loving you all these years. Maybe you want to thank your wife for putting up with you! Maybe you want to thank the stranger on the street corner who was kind to you.

Of course, thank you letters do work both ways, and there can be a lot of sarcasm in a thank you as well, such as, “Thank you for breaking my heart, you scum!” We leave it up to you how you want to word your thank you letter, but we hope you’ll send it to us for consideration!

Be sure to put: UNSENT LETTERS SUBMISSION – THANK YOU

in the subject line of the email. Follow all other submission guidelines.

  • UNSENT LETTERS to PETS

I’m one of those people who loves my pet pretty much like they are part of my family. Over the years, my pets have gotten me through some rough times just by keeping me active, giving me someone to care for and about, something to do, making me laugh–you name it. For those of us who love our furry friends, feathered friends, four-legged friends, and all the other types of pets who show us their unconditional love and gratitude, this Unsent Letters book is for you. Write a letter to your pet!

Be sure to put: UNSENT LETTERS SUBMISSION – PETS

in the subject line of the email. Follow all other submission guidelines.

  • UNSENT LETTERS to CHILDREN

Whether the letter is to your child, someone else’s child, the child you used to be, or the child you hope to have… this Unsent Letters collection is Unsent Letters to Children.

Be sure to put: UNSENT LETTERS SUBMISSION – CHILDREN

in the subject line of the email. Follow all other submission guidelines.

  • HUMOROUS UNSENT LETTERS

Sometimes we just want to laugh, whether it’s a chuckle, a snort, or a sarcastic zinger, use this category to write that funny, poignantly sarcastic, or drippingly dry Unsent Letter on any subject you choose.

Be sure to put: UNSENT LETTERS SUBMISSION – HUMOR

in the subject line of the email.

Of course, you don’t have to submit to one of these categories specifically. You’re always welcome to submit a generic letter or a letter to someone or on a subject not included here. The more unique, compelling and poignant your letter is, the better. If your letter can help someone, teach a lesson, provide answers… something with a bigger appeal, a universal application, we will pay top dollar.

Looking forward to reading your submissions.
