Open call for submissions — We don’t do this often

At CRY, we like to send you themes that spark ideas for you to write about. Our guided submission requests have become part of who we are. But every once in a while, we do open submissions where we let you decide what you want to write about.

This is one of those times.

Our only ask is that your submission be related to creativity in some way. Other than that, it’s totally up to you.

Same rules as always:

• If you’re already a writer for CRY, go ahead and submit.
• If you’re not a writer for CRY but would like to submit to this request, let us know and we’ll add you ASAP.
• 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.
• Deadline to submit is this Friday, August 21.

Please reach out if you have any questions at all. If you are new to Medium, here’s how you submit a draft to a publication.
