Hi Laura,

Attached is my piece called Cape Cod 2010, which deals with depression, for your consideration for the anthology.

I have published essays in the New York Times, Salon.com, New York Metro, among others. I teach essay writing and poetry and have an MFA from New York University.

Thank you for your time and interest.

Stay well,

Thank you so much for both submissions, Marcelle! I'm just starting to collect essays, so I will be in touch sometime early next year.
Best regards,
Laura André
Dear Laura

Attached please find my essay "Loving Lydia" for possible inclusion in the anthology. The piece is about my relationship with my sister who suffers from bipolar disorder. The essay won 3rd prize last week in the Westport Arts Center essay contest; I retain all rights.

I have published essays in the New York Times, Salon.com and New York Metro newspapers, among others.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Stay well,
Marcelle

HI Laura,

 

I was just wondering how the book sis ocming along and when you might be reviewing submissions. Hope all is well with you! Best, Marcelle

Just checking in to see if anyone has heard any updates on this anthology. I submitted last month and was curious if others had any feedback yet...

Thanks, 
Leigh

 

Hi Laura, here is a submission by me if you are still accepting them.  I am not sure what I have written is what you are looking for but it is my story.  I will be willing to make changes if you think that necessary. 

Good luck with your book.  It sounds fascinating.

Hello Marilyn,

 

Thank you--I'll be in touch after I've had a chance to read all the submissions. There are approximately 200 to go through, so it will be at least a month.

 

Best regards,

Laura
