Got it. Thank you.
Your story is in, and I’m going to read every one of these myself.
Submissions close September 20, 2026
After that I’ll spend a couple of weeks going through everything and choosing the fifteen that go in the book.
If yours is one of them, you approve it first
I’ll email you the edited version before it goes anywhere near print. Your words, just fewer of them, and nothing gets printed without your yes.
If it isn’t, you’ll still hear from me
Your story goes on the Cloud of Witnesses page here on the site with the rest of them, and I’ll write and tell you where to find it.
Either way, give it a few weeks
There’s one of me and I’m reading all of them.
Letters from the Road
There’s a pre-order campaign coming for this book, and something I’m genuinely excited about is attached to it. A set of fictional letters from the people in Acts nobody talks about, imagining what became of them, each one with original hand-drawn art.
Because you took the time to do this, you’ll hear about it first, before it goes public. You don’t need to do anything. It’ll come to the address you just gave me.
Getting to read what these days did in people has already been the best part of a long project. Thanks for being one of the ordinary people this whole thing is about.
