Thanks to our teachers!
Writing your story gives you perspective

Thanks to our teachers!

Has your life been brightened by what a teacher said or did?

Have a teacher to thank?

Has your life been blighted by what a teacher said, or did to you?

Still working through the trauma?

I am collecting stories for my next book


The Reason

I aim to shine light on the social and emotional outcomes of the education system. There are great teachers who do fantastic work. They make our lives better. There are awful teachers too, and they do tremendous damage that affects our lives.

  • We seek to know more, to understand
  • We seek to forgive and give thanks
  • We will not shame or embarrass anyone.


The Rules

You can send 3 to 5 stories showing different ways teachers have affected your life.

  1. Word limit, 300 - 500 words, for each story
  2. All texts will be checked for AI-content
  3. NO NAMES. Use generic terms like "My Music teacher", "Ms M"
  4. Write in first person, past tense. A good introduction would be, “If I spoke with my teacher today, I would say…”


Your Reflection

Once you have written your story, reflect on how the writing process has affected you. Then write about 100 words about that. Send that to me too.


Your Reward

Selected stories will be published in a paperback and ebook on my Amazon Author Page. Authors will receive a pdf copy to do with as they wish.


Ready?

Send your story to me in a direct message. I will get in touch with you. There are no fees or payments to consider.
