THE REAL / YOUR CHOICE
A STORY TO TALK ABOUT?
Start with an expression of interest. You do not need to give the story itself, identify other people or describe a difficult experience here.
A CONVERSATION BEFORE A PUBLICATION.
A human team would discuss the format, support, privacy and permissions with you before any story is developed. Expressing an interest is not a publication release or a guarantee that a story will be used.
KEEP THE FIRST MESSAGE GENERAL.
You could say that you are interested in sharing a turning point, a creative journey or an experience of finding support. Avoid names, detailed allegations, traumatic descriptions or uploads of private material.
YOU CAN ASK ON SOMEONE’S BEHALF.
A parent or carer can ask about the process. That does not replace the contributor’s appropriate permissions and choices.
