Call for submissions — How have you tried to fit in?
I think we’ve all done this at one time or another. We tried to fit into a situation because we wanted to be accepted. It’s a normal human need. We want to belong among others and not have to stand on our own all the time.
For this submission request, we’re going to give a little leeway. Tell us about a time you compromised your creativity because you thought it would get you ahead. In that same notion, you can also tell us about a time in general that you tried to fit in but it still didn’t work out.
We’ll be giving more weight to the creative stories, but we won’t have any problem at all posting the general stories. So feel free to share experiences about either because we’d love to read them.
Same rules as always:If you’re already a writer for CRY, go ahead and submit.If you’re not a writer for CRY but would like to submit to this request, let us know and we’ll add you ASAP.Be as creative as you want in your submissions. As long as you stick to the topic, we’ll consider it.Just because you submit doesn’t mean we’ll post. If you haven’t heard back from us in three days, consider that a pass.Deadline to submit is Monday, September 21.Please reach out if you have any questions at all. If you are new to Medium, here’s how you submit a draft to a publication.
