Your Turn. What Happened to You, Sweetie?
We want to hear your stories, no matter how mundane, no matter how unhinged.
You know you’ve got something amazing to share. Don’t gatekeep it. Email us your It Happened to Me (or more than one) at jane@anotherjaneprattthing.com. If we publish it, we will pay you $50.
Here are some that made us empathize / wince / snort / say, “Wow, WTF” (and maybe all of the above).
It Happened to Me: Dissolving My Fillers Went Terribly Wrong
It Happened to Me: My Parents Helped My Vagina Heal
It Happened to Me: Jane Pratt Saved My Life
It Happened to Me: The Scariest Halloween of My Life
It Happened to Me: I Tried on Pants
It Happened to Me: My Dad Joined a Cult, and He Got a Lot Nicer
But don’t compare yourself to others. Your story is uniquely yours, so tell it with your whole chest.
We’re ready with some tea towels decorated in corgis with crowns. Start spilling.
Are you interested in stories if they are already published elsewhere? Thank you.
Amazing! It's been on my To Do list to research whether you accept reader submissions! I wasn't sure where the IHTM stories came from, but I've been wanting to write something, and now I will!
It's something I had originally wanted to test out at a The Moth Story Slam, but I'd love to start here first (you know, where I don't have to get on a stage and look at people and maybe have an anxiety attack or something equally fun)
