BASTA!

100 Latinas Write on Violence Against Women

Basta! is a project that begun in Santiago, Chile by Ediciones Asterión a few years ago. A group of women writers wanted to use the power of words to try and stop violence against their gender in Chile, or at the very least, bring more awareness to it. Over time, the project has grown to other countries and continents and now, it has come to the US. We are currently working on the US anthology and we want to invite you to participate.

Send us 3 short stories (minifiction) of no more than 150 words each on the topic of violence against women (English or Spanish) and a short bio. We are reaching out to Latinas in the U.S. to contribute to our anthology and we would like you to be one of the women highlighted in this book.

Each contributor will received 2 copies of the book in appreciation for their participation in the anthology.

For more information, please contact Dr. Emma Sepulveda at emmas@unr.edu or Iris West at iwest@unr.edu

Submission Deadline: July 31st, 2015
