Call for Submissions — How do you celebrate the small wins?

This is something that helped change my mindset and in turn, change the outcome of a lot of my goals.

We all have grand ambitions for our writing. Whatever grand means for you, it’s something elusive, a place further than where you are today. But despite where you are today, you’ve already accomplished so much.

You may not see things in that way, but it’s true. You’ve accumulated so many small wins but haven’t taken the time to properly celebrate. That ends today.

Tell us how you celebrate the small wins on your writing or creative journey. If you haven’t celebrated them, think about how you will moving forward. This exercise requires you to reflect on your accomplishments and be proud. You may not be exactly where you want just yet, but you’ve come a long way.

Same rules as always:

• You can submit to this or ANY of our past writing prompts. Just scroll through our previous newsletters. They’ll be marked “Call for Submissions.”
• If you’re already a writer for CRY, go ahead and submit.
• Be as creative as you want in your submissions. As long as you stick to the topic, we’ll consider it.
• Just because you submit doesn’t mean we’ll post. If you haven’t heard back from us in three days, consider that a pass.
