Single Half-Queer, Desperately Seeking: Anonymous coming out letters from all generations of the LGBT community.
Whether you are completely closeted, out to some but not to all, or living OUTloud and proud, write a coming-out letter to someone in your life (even if they already know!!). Maybe you have a crush you want to secretly tell or maybe there are some “thank-you”s or “I hate you”s you’d like to get off your chest…WRITE it, slap a stamp on it, send it to me!!!!
Letters can be as creatively decorated or as plain Jane (or Joe) as you’d like. Pictures, drawings, magazine clippings, poems, handwritten, or typed letters can all be included.
It can be silly or serious, can contain things you need to say, want to say, should have said, never said…you get the idea. Speak out FREELY to your mom, dad, spouse, kids, clergy, WHOMEVER…completely uncensored.
Send letters to:
Project: OUT
PO Box 10
Frederick, MD 21705
USA
There is only one rule about content. If you want to tell your age, your gender, your sex, you are more than welcome to…what you CANNOT INCLUDE is your NAME.
Why anonymous?? Anonymity breeds honesty. We speak more freely when we don’t have to sign our names or when we are not playing to an audience for recognition.
Ideally, I would like this project to be successful enough that a book can be made of the compiled letters and cards. Perhaps an art exhibit? Public readings? Either way, if one day this project ends up becoming something more, you can rest assured your coming out won’t be exploited.
Best of Luck.
