Fictional Characters

I started my Gratitude Girl blog at the beginning of spring 2021 and, every Wednesday, posted a letter of gratitude to someone I appreciate, someone who has had an impact on my life, regardless of whether or not I've met them in real life. I continued writing these letters of appreciation for two full years. Since Nowruz 2023, or the first day of spring of this year, just for fun, I've been writing my letters of gratitude to fictional characters. In the last nineteen weeks, each Wednesday, I've expressed my appreciation for a new character.

Anthology

Has a fictional character ever kept you company during a difficult time?  Have you ever fallen in love with a fictional character's physical or mental traits? Have you ever thought of a fictional character as your hero? Have you ever created a fictional character in your writing that you would want the world to know about? If the answer to any of the questions above is yes, write a letter of gratitude to that fictional character and submit it to the anthology in the works.

Submission Guidelines

Anthology Submission Guidelines 1 - Each submission should be between 100 words and 300 words. 2 - The deadline for submission is August 30, 2023. I will not extend it. 3 - Each submission must include the full name of the character as indicated in the story and the full title of the book it came from.  4 - Pen names are allowed. This is important because writers often fall in love with their own characters, and I want these writers to freely introduce their characters to the world. 5 - All submissions must be copied and pasted into the email and submitted to gratigi21@gmail.com  with the subject line FICTIONAL CHARACTER. (Please don't send Google docs, Word documents, PDFs, etc.) 6 - I will not include any bios or links in the anthology, so whatever marketing contributors want to do, they must do in the writing of their piece.  7 - The approved submissions will be announced via email by September 10, 2023, and the book will be published in October 2023. 8 - There is no entry fee t
