Focus on the Family Magazine: Historical Fiction Based on Family Stories

Posted by Sally Clark on Saturday, October 16, 2021
Focus on the Family Magazine: Historical Fiction Based on Family Stories

Topic: We are looking for historical fiction that is based on true family stories. (Remember that “historical fiction” means stories that are from a time period that is at least 50 years ago. Each story should be a short story, of course (protagonist has a problem, the protagonist solves the problem through his/her actions) and include a light faith element. It should also include an element or action, something that kids today may not know how to do. At the end of the story, you should include a handful of discussion questions that parents and kids could talk about regarding this element or action. For example, the protagonist may churn butter (we already have a butter-churning story so do not use butter churning). This is what parents and kids would have a discussion over. (How do we get butter now? How did people used to make butter? etc.)

Word count: 800 to 1200 words
Rights: First nonexclusive rights to print in the magazine and for it to be add to a PDF download
Payment: $375, on acceptance
Due date: November 11, 2021
Byline: Yes — whether in print, PDF or online
Audience: Parents with children in the home
