Read submission guidelines closely.
Applications sent that don’t adhere to guidelines won’t be considered. If you don’t hear back within two weeks, it’s a no, thank you. Please don’t send multiple emails.
We are proud members of the Boost Nomination Pilot Program.
How to apply
First, please follow The Narrative Arc. That’s right. Click follow.
Next, email us at parasolpubs@gmail.com with a link to an unpublished draft, written specifically for The Narrative Arc. Your profile should reflect your ability to write personal essays and memoirs.
Last, be patient. We got lots of requests. If your unpublished draft is neither a personal essay nor memoir, we won’t respond.
A request: don’t send several links to your Medium page along with published stories, explaining why you don’t have an unpublished draft.
