WHAT IS THIS?

This site is the result of my somewhat weird idea to publish open letters I like on a blog. It should serve as sort of an online literary magazine. I sent out an initial email to some writers I know & received a couple of responses & one submission, which I hope will be posted soon.

What am I looking for in the letters? As one person put it, I am looking for sort of an essay in a letter form, something that tells a story or creates a scene or mood. I am perfectly willing to publish any letter anonymously because I feel like people are sometimes more willing to write truthfully if their identites are hidden.

What length should the letters be? I guess not more than 1000 words, but I guess it depends on the letter.

Where should letters be sent? Letters can be sent to debbieisarockstar@yahoo.com as a Word or Word Perfect attachment or in the body of an email.

What other information should be included? The date the letter was written, the city where the letter was written, your name, whether you want your name to appear in the letter.

I hope these simple guidelines help. I look forward to receiving submissions.
