Mardi Gras may be nowhere near, but that traditional call from the crowds to the krewes is going out from True Stories Well Told. It is not “throws” I seek, not gaudy plastic jewelry or toys, but your stories, true and taut.

You see, I’m going to be away at the Association of Personal Historians conference in Sacramento for a week+, and I won’t have time and attention to feed this blog its accustomed diet of writing prompts, book reviews, and stories from my own life. Anyway, I’d rather hear yours!

Here are the guidelines. Now throw me somethin’, Mr.,  Ms., whoever you are! Send your stories to sarah.white@firstpersonprod.com.
