Shout out all the wonderful people who did the brave thing and submitted to our second annual anthology!

Currently, we're only open to submissions from women of color, and some sites excluded that fact, so thanks to all the men who subbed, may your stories find their forever home soon!

Hey #WritersCommunity!

It's come to our attention that some sites have been posting about this call, but forgot 2 VERY important things!
1: The Women of Color Writers' Circle name
2: The fact that the call is ONLY open to BIPOC women.
