What things can words do?
The Human Narrative is a platform that aims to shed light on the untold stories of the human experience. Any human experience, before being reduced to a statistic or a few words on a stone, is lived with as much vibrancy as we’d like to imagine for our existence.
A good story doesn’t need excellent prose, though it wouldn’t hurt. The purpose is to collect diverse stories from different people—stories that might seem too mundane to be shown on a big screen or too heavy for a coffee chat.
We invite you to share stories about people, things, and places—whether they span a single day or a lifetime. Share with us the nuanced stories that explore the subtle and unnamed emotions.
We welcome submissions in any form of creative expression, including Short Stories, Memoirs, Poetry, Prose, Art, and beyond.
- Text must be no longer than 3000 words.
- Submitted work must be original.
- Unlimited submission per person
- Separate submissions should be made through separately
