#Choose To Challenge - Celebrate IWD 2021
Hip Circle Empowerment Center is seeking women writers of all ages and experience-levels to submit their words to an International Women's Day #ChooseToChallenge publication.
To celebrate International Women’s Day, Hip Circle will be publishing a book of women’s voices exploring *any* topic that relates to and challenges gender bias and/or celebrates women’s achievements. We encourage all women to submit a story, poem, essay, or one-act play for consideration by March 31, 2021. Contributors will have the opportunity (not obligation) to participate in live readings later in the year and will receive a copy of the published book.
The publication will be released in June 2021 in honor of Hip Circle’s 11th anniversary, and available for purchase online. There is no cost to submit. All proceeds from this book will benefit Hip Circle Empowerment Center in their 11th year of operation.
If you are a woman business owner or community leader, we want to publish your unique entrepreneur journey in our IWD #ChoosetoChallenge Sponsored Stories. By sharing your story, you’ll inspire the next wave of strong and empowered women. Review our #ChooseToChallenge sponsorship levels for this project and thank you for your continued support.
