I am searching for Black identified females/females of the African Diaspora who practice Veganism to share their stores in an anthology I would like to put together. Please feel free to submit a piece, regardless of the fact that you may not practice veganism 100% of the time. Those who are making a conscious effort to engage in veganism most of the time are invited to contribute to this project. I understand that each person engaged in practicing veganism is at a different level (from fruitarian to raw to cooked to a vegan who occasionally engages in a vegetarian diet). I am looking for poetry, photography, personal narratives, creative stories or critical essays about reflections on veganism.

All stories, critical analysis, poetry, and insights all welcome for submission, along with other creative formats you feel will allow your voice to be heard. If possible, stories and essays should be no more than 15 pp double spaced with 1" Margins.

***Please provide a short bio (No more than 1/2 page long) and contact info.

Deadline is August 1, 2006.

Thanks and I look forward to connecting with you through your writing and art. Please send as an attachment (MicrosoftWord or Appleworks) to harper2@fas.harvard.edu or you can postal mail to me. Email me for the mailing address.
