1. Oh my, the requirements for the story are... not stringent yet one must be compliant. LOL.(bolding

mine).

Send us your stories and feelings about Wal-Mart, based on personal experience. That's all. Do it however you'd like. So far we've had:

-drawings
-essays
-photos
-poetry
-personal narrative
-single sentences
-photoshop projects

Definitely open to all possibilities. It's important that submissions be based at least somewhat on personal experience. This makes things more interesting and much more powerful. See this entry for an idea of what I mean, but don't think that it's the only way to do it, or that supporting Wal-Mart is key. It's really supposed to be about you.


Non-text submissions in jpg format. If it is a written piece, text should either be pasted into email or attached as a pdf or doc file. Avoid anything potentially inappropriate. Be sure to include your name with your submission, unless you would prefer to remain anonymous.

Actually, the "supporting Wal-Mart is key" phrase is in a sentence explaining why it's not about Wal-Mart after all, it's about, sigh, tearful sniff, you. MKJ

2. We don't set foot in wal-mart.

My daughter used to shop there because she was poor, and had no real alternatives in her small town. She recently graduated from college and got a GREAT job. Her first words: I don't have to shop at wal-mart anymore...it's just cheap, nasty stuff!

3. Wal-Mart parking lot is 8/10ths of a mile from my front door.

End of story!!!
