The World Needs a little more Tenderness

New work accepted at https://www.tendernessyea.com/about-1/

I submitted because I liked the look of these rambunctious girls--editors and founders of tenderness, yea

tenderness, yea was founded after a series of readings in new orleans, when we realized all the best writers we knew didn’t have a place to put their work. it’s a place for them, and a place for you too. 

we understand that the word tenderness means  “kindness and gentleness” as well as “a sensitivity to pain”, we want to know what this word means to you, as well as how the multitudes of its definition intersect. 

tenderness, yea is jo gehringer, zoë blair-schlagenhauf, and amelia seidel. please excuse our mess. 

I liked the idea that they were going out there and doing something. Crazy, I know. We all need to be a little crazy.

Will post when the piece is up. Until then, keep submitting.
