We are really looking for original work here, but it could certainly be another angle on an incident that you have written about elsewhere or an updated version of a story that you've told. Having said that, if you have something that you are looking to submit that has already been published exactly the way that you would want it to run as an It Happened To Me, go ahead and send that in if you would and just note where it has been published before. There's always a possibility that it got published but was not widely read and that we can find a way to work with that. So send him anything and everything and I'm really really excited (kind of chomping at the bit) to start reading your submissions. Thanks for asking the question!
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)
Are you interested in stories if they are already published elsewhere? Thank you.
