I am working on an anthology of essays by Jewish Asexual/Ace-Spectrum individuals. I am currently in the phase of collecting pieces, and I’d love to hear from you!
Topics include:
-Shomer negiah/tzniut/Jewish cultural expectations
-Growing up ace and Jewish in a secular world/in a Jewish community
-Stereotypes and tropes - fitting in, breaking out
-Alienation from/inclusion in Jewish and queer spaces
-Family/relationship pressures, expectations, and navigation
-Figuring out you’re ace
-Coming out
-Ace and _
-Parenting/not parenting
-Sexuality/romance, or lack thereof
-Ace joy, ace community
-Anything else that comes to mind about the ace and jewish experience !

Pieces are ideally between 500-1,500 words. Anonymous pieces or pieces under a pseudonym are allowed!
If interested, please email me at jewishaceanthology@gmail.com!

It is open to all aces of Jewish heritage (whether religious or otherwise). If you're interested please email jewishaceanthology@gmail.com.

 

We already posted this in the Jewish Asexuals thread a while ago, but are still looking for submissions. Any questions, please email the address above (or ask us, and we'll pass the question on)!

 

The current deadline for drafts is 15 September 2024, but do write to the above address if you need to discuss the timeframe!
