LitUp Writers seeks humorous first-person essays about travel – journeys taken for recreation, business or family obligations. Ideally, we seek pieces that are both funny, but also personal; stories that reveal something about the author through a humorous lens.

Selected stories will be read, by the authors, before a live audience on Thursday, April 15, 2010 at Space Gallery in San Francisco. A mandatory rehearsal will be held on Tuesday, April 13, 2010 at Space Gallery.

Please send all submissions, via e-mail, to litupwriters [at] gmail.com. Submissions must be 1,200 words or less. Deadline for submissions is February 19, 2010.
