I Think You’re Gorgeous

A friend of mine, Caitlin, has started a fantastic project at school that I wanted to let Emerging Women know about. She is passionate about helping young women have a healthy view of their body and to love themselves, and this project will help collect and highlight images and stories of girls finding the courage to love themselves. So take a look and get the word out to girls you know under 20 (even really young kiddos) –

I Think You’re Gorgeous

Hey, pretty girl. Let’s face it – you kick ass, and we both know it. Send me your art, and I’ll post it once a month.

THE RULES:
If you’re a girl who’s under 20, submit a piece of art – a poem, photography, a drawing, a short essay, anything – that follows the prompt of the month. If you mail your art, keep it no larger than an 8X10 page. Try to keep your text submissions down to 350 words or less.

SUBMIT BY EMAIL:
ithink_youregorgeous@yahoo.com

OR TRY SNAIL MAIL:

November’s prompt!

Show me one thing you absolutely love about you. I want to see unabashed self-adoration. It could be a drawing of your eyes, a poem about your tennis expertise, whatever. Just make sure it’s artistic, authentic, and celebrates you.

Due November 25, so get crackin’!
