Share Your Stories & Be In Shannon's Next Book
Do you have a story to tell? Embarrassing, hilarious, insightful, inspirational, or unexpected – We’re looking for tales of ordinary people in extraordinary situations for inclusion in two new books on the subject of:
- Cross-Cultural Bloopers – tales of international faux pas and travel experiences
- Minding Your Manners – funny, awkward & scary situations when manners were misunderstood
Story Guidelines
Every good story has a beginning, a middle, an end, and features an appealing collection of characters. We’re not looking for recycled essays, letters or journal entries. We want you to tell us a true tale about something that has happened to you, or to someone you know, and don’t forget to:
- Introduce the characters.
- Explain how they felt in the situation, so the reader can empathize.
- Set the scene, describe the action, and end with a result.
Stories should have universal appeal and should not include political, controversial or sexual content.
