Speak Your Story

Do you have a story you want to share that you feel can give others the hope that you yourself have received?

This is the place for you to do it, and it doesn’t have to be about abuse (but it can).

I know many hold back for fear that their story isn’t enough, that it could cause harm in relationships, or, let’s be honest, it’s hard to be vulnerable.

Please take the time to share your story, because I promise you, someone out there needs it, and I would love to help you get it to them.

Submit your story in the form below.

Please keep it between 1,500 and 2,000 words. Use programs such as Microsoft Word, WordCounter.net, WordCountTools.com, etc. to calculate your word count.

*Disclaimer – by submitting your story, you are granting Make Time To Cuddle authorization to reuse your story within the content published with permission to print without reimbursement. Permission is also being granted to edit the work (grammatical errors, typos, and length); however the story will not be changed in any way. Your submission can be anonymous; names will be changed upon request.

To decrease possible frustrations:

• It is strongly recommended that you type out your story in Microsoft Word, Pages,  Notepad, etc. Any program you can save it in case there is a technical problem while trying to send your story. Then, copy and paste it below.
• If your story is longer than 5,000 characters, consider emailing it to yaya@maketimetocuddle.com instead.

You will receive an email reply with the anticipated publication date. Turnaround time for story publication may vary.
