We all love a good story and everyone has a story to tell. That’s why Fountain Pen Tales is inviting you to share your story in October. Your tale can be a Real Truth, (non-fiction) or a Good Lie, (fiction) and you can tell it anyway you want—through poetry, essay, memoir, short story—whatever fits your fancy. It can center on something that’s funny or sad, loving or hate-filled, a challenge or triumph. We want you to share past experiences that are recorded in your heart, never in history books.
Stories are everywhere; they evolve from holiday happenings, special occasions, school/college days, family events. Take Halloween, for instance, next month’s theme. How creative were you in hooking up your Treat or Treat get-up? I don’t remember ever having a store-bought costume, but I remember the big dresses stuffed with rags for boobs and fireplace ashes used as a disguise. What was Halloween like for you?
