Welcome to the Wild, Beautiful Things project! This project is envisioned as a book compilation of women, women-identifying, and non-binary individuals who have PTSD (including C-PTSD) and use expressive, healing, and/or creative arts to assist in their growth. All visual/written art forms are welcome and artists need not be professionals.
Applicants to this project should be comfortable with the identification of PTSD and should be willing and able to share their story and work as it relates to their diagnosis. You may submit up to 3 pieces for consideration per application.
The $50 nonrefundable fee helps process and review submissions. Applicants who are selected for the project will be asked to submit an additional $400 (payment installations available) to cover editing, printing, and production of the book as well as related marketing.
Applications are open July 20 - August 20, 2023. Participants will be selected and notified by September 15, 2023.
