if you've got it, flaunt it
by The Editors
WE’RE OFF THIS WEEK getting ready to travel to the Los Angeles Convention Center for the Association of Writers & Writing Programs (AWP) Conference Bookfair, March 27 through March 29.
AND BIG NEWS: Our Submissions window will open on March 30!
Since we launched on Sept 13, 2024, we have published twenty-five compelling true stories and have had a wonderful response from readers all over the country. Our stories are ten-minute reads, sometimes longer. If you do the math, our twenty-five true stories add up to nearly five hours of reading! And because we don’t have a paywall, all this content is FOR FREE!
Out of these twenty-five true stories, eleven have been featured in Memoir Monday, Memoir Land’s industry-standard weekly roundup of the best personal essays around the web.
Here are links to those eleven stories—FOR FREE!!!—and yes, it will take you at least two hours to read them:
“The Girl Who Dressed As a Turd”
We want to be FOR FREE!!!! forever. We want to keep delivering this amazing content to you each Sunday. And in order to keep this going, we are asking for your help to make it happen. Please consider a paid subscription to sneaker wave magazine.
If you’re attending AWP, you can find us at Booth #T860, which is conveniently located fifty feet from the restrooms and about seventy-five feet from the concession stand. So you’ll see us, for sure! We’ll be the people wearing extra-cool sneaker wave magazine T-shirts. If you subscribe as a Founding Member, you will also receive a sneaker wave magazine T-shirt FOR FREE!!!!
I’m a founding member and hope you’ll send me a Sneaker Wave T-shirt in Large. 🤗
We are so jazzed about all the folks who are supporting sneaker wave and making WEEKLY TRUE STORIES happen! Thanks, y'all!!
