Writing From The Heart: Here’s Your Chance To Sell Your Stuff

I’m a big fan of Danielle LaPorte and I’m happy to announce she’s starting a new magazine full of inspiration and insights. If you are twitching to write, here’s your chance…She’s calling for submissions for the first issue of Danielle, debuting in September. And they pay, too, which is always a bonus.

Two things she’s looking for: the first is a section called LOVE LOVE. Obviously, about that amazing awe-inspiring four-letter word, LOVE, and how it’s turned your life around, including the up’s and down’s.

Then there’s “I Used to be…And now I am…” Stories about transformation. What you used to be like and what you are now. How did you get here from there.

Maybe you were keen on mentally berating yourself and now you’ve switched to being your best cheerleader. Or maybe you were like the man who was a racist and then ended up adopting two African-American boys as seen on Oprah‘s show a while ago.

I love stories like that. Because they are experiences that turn into something grand. A flip-flop of the heart. For further details, check out Danielle’s request here:

Write it to right your world. Write it down. You have nothing to lose. Today’s commitment to myself: Be bold.
