Writing opportunity: Chicken Soup for Teachers

Found this item while perusing one of my favorite freelance writing sites (The Writer's Network) and thought there might be some folks here who'd be interested in submitting:

CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE TEACHER'S SOUL - PAYS $300/STORY
-------------------------------------------------------------
The best-selling compilation of inspirational and uplifting
stories has spawned CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE TEACHER'S SOUL: 101
Stories to Open the Heart and Rekindle the Spirits of
Teachers.

Chicken Soup's acquisition editor, NANCY AUTIO, is seeking
stories that focus on the following themes: the power of love
in the classroom, successes with challenging students,
insights and lessons learned, overcoming obstacles, honoring
teachers, making a difference, humor in the classroom, living
your dreams, attitude and anything else that opens the heart
and touches the soul. Stories can be original or clipped from
newspapers and magazines and can range in length from one
paragraph to 1500 words. Authors whose submissions are chosen
receive $300, a biography in the book and a personally
autographed copy upon publication. A portion of the proceeds
from the book's sales is donated to support several
educational charities.

Deadline for submissions is August 1, 2001. Submissions may
be sent to Nancy Autio, PO Box 30880, Santa Barbara, CA
93130, downloaded to their web site at www.chickensoup.com or
e-mailed to nautio@chickensoup.com. *Submissions will not be
returned.

**They are also looking for stories of getting through grief
for CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE GRIEVING SOUL and Christmas stories
for A CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE SOUL CHRISTMAS TREASURY. You can
get more details on all of these books by e-mailing Nancy
Autio at the address given above.

Wow, that is fantastic. I have a few stories to tell, I think I will have to give this a go. What's the worst that could happen?

Thanks for sharing this with us.
