I have great news to share! Within the past three weeks the USA SWIMMING FOUNDATION has received more than 80 inspirational stories. We were so successful in finding great stories, our publisher has requested that we extend the deadline, which was October 28th, to December 31, 2011 at 11:59 PM EST.
If you have an inspiring swimming story to tell, please submit to swimstories@usaswimming.org. Select stories will be included in the book, alongside some of America’s favorite athletes.
At this point we would like to make sure the swimming community is aware of this opportunity and request that you notify us of any stories that you think will be a good fit for this project—especially those that will touch the hearts of Americans everywhere.
REMEMBER, the new deadline for submission is now December 31st, 2011. If selected to participate in the book project, your story will be reviewed by the publisher, edited and sent back to the writer for approval. We are currently looking for stories with a 1000+ word count to be considered.
