City Hill Publishing, a small press out of Rancho Cordova, CA, is currently seeking submissions from new and established authors for an anthology of non-fiction/memoir essays. The anthology is entitled From the Bleachers and focus on significant professional sports events or figures from the perspective of the fans. Any major, professional sports event or figure is acceptable. We don't care if it is curling as long as it is an engaging, thoughtful, and articulate piece.
The memoir/essays must be well-written and emotionally impactful, discussing important moments that, in retrospect, held a special place in the writer's heart. For example, how a sports moment enhanced a relationship with a loved one, how the event/figure came at a powerful time in one's life, how an event/figure created community among a certain group, how an event/figure increased your love of the game, etc. Each essay/memoir must be centered around a professional sports event/figure and be positive and personal.
SUBMISSION DEADLINE IS OCTOBER 31, 2013 at MIDNIGHT.
