HARVEST BASKETS is a gathering of stories about the women in your family, and every family. This book will include short reflections, humorous stories, poetry, copies of letters written generations ago, photographs, and narratives of growing up with the influence of magnificent women. It will also include some memories that are puzzles still unsolved, or even dark recollections that cast shadows through the years.

Both men and women are invited to submit brief stories that sketch a moment, an event, a character from your family’s life. Suggested length is 250 to 500 words, but please inquire if your story is shorter or longer.
