Submit your own original legend here (No attachments please. Attachments will not be opened. The suggested word limit is 1000 words, but much less than that often is enough for an interesting legend.) The box for typing in "Your Legend Here" looks small, but it actually holds a lot of text if you type in it or paste your work into it. Also please type "yes" or "no" into the boxes after the questions about whether you grant permission to use your name and e-mail on the site if we post your original submission.

All submissions become the property of Women’s Bible Legends and its author, Lynn Clarke.
By submitting an original legend, you are warranting that it is your original work, that it is not defamatory or otherwise unlawful and that it does not invade individual privacy or infringe on any proprietary right or statutory copyright. You warrant that your submission has not been published elsewhere in whole or in part and that no agreement to publish is pending. You warrant that you are at least eighteen years of age (or that you are at least thirteen years of age, if you are under age eighteen, and have your parents’ permission, and that they make the warranties in this paragraph and grant publication permission on your behalf) and you grant us permission to publish your submission on this website and in any format or medium at any time or from time to time.
You agree that we may edit your submission in any manner.
Editorial Guidelines:
1. We are seeking short, original stories and legends, in prose or poetry, related to the pages currently appearing on the site. While the suggested word limit is 1000 words, shorter than the limit is preferable.
2. We are not seeking academic analysis or non-fiction works.
3. Please do not submit works that use profanity, are anti-Semitic or otherwise offensive.
4. Please do not submit supercessionist works. [Mary C. Boys, in her book, Has God Only One Blessing? Judaism as a Source of Christian Understanding, (New York: Paulist Press, 2000), pp. 10-11, gives a definition of 'supercessionism' as "the theological claim that Christians have replaced the Jews as God's people because the Jews rejected Jesus." She notes that claims that Judaism is obsolete or its covenant ended, can also be a part of supercessionist doctrine. Similarly, in his article, Christian Theology After the Shoah, in Christianity in Jewish Terms, Tikva Frymer-Kensky, David Novak, Peter Ochs, David Fox Sandmel, Michael A. Signer, eds., (Boulder, Colorado: Westview Press, 2000), p. 38, Christopher M. Leighton describes Christian Supercessionism as the idea that the followers of Jesus displaced the Jews as people of God.]
Supercessionist legends and stories will not be posted on the site, and if you see anything inadvertently posted on the site that appears to you to be supercessionist, please let us know and accept our apologies.
