SUBMIT YOUR LOVE STORY FOR OUR UPCOMING ANTHOLOGY!
Love has a way of showing up when we least expect it.
This anthology will be a heartwarming collection of true love stories from people who have found unexpected love - later in life, after loss, in a second chance, through reconnection, or in the most surprising of circumstances. These are stories of resilience, open hearts, and beautiful ways love can arrive when we least expect it.
Uplifting, intimate, and deeply human, this anthology will celebrate the many paths of love and remind us that it's never too late for a new beginning.
We're looking for real people with remarkable journeys of unexpected love. Is that YOU??
The goal of this anthology is to inspire readers who may believe that finding a new, empowering and loving relationship is likely improbable, based on their experience of loss, disappointment or heartache in the past.
We welcome true, heart-centered stories that are uplifting and inspiring, about how YOU found unexpected love, even after thinking it may not happen for you, ever... or again.
ALL DETAILS AND SUBMISSION FORM ARE HERE.
Submissions due by Thursday, November 12, 2026

THANK YOU! Now, go write your heart out!
Eli Hans & Joseph Bennett
WHO ARE THESE GUYS?
In case we haven't met, we're Eli and Joseph, happily married for 26 years, business partners, and grateful to be living in the magical city of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.
Joseph is author of seven self-published books, including his moving first historical fiction novel about slavery called Jeremiah.
Eli is the award-winning playwright and performer of his mostly one-man show Out of The Blue.
They're both personal growth workshop and retreat leaders, actors, transformational theatre and life coaches, and passionate about making a positive difference in the world.
WHY THIS, WHY NOW?
We have a unique and inspiring story about how we met at a mass commitment ceremony 26 years ago, and got married on the spot without knowing each other, or even our names. It's been a journey of true, deep love ever since.
Every time we share it, people are deeply moved and inspired, opening up their hearts to the possibility of transformative love.
We've met others along our path, also with inspiring and beautiful stories about newfound love, and we are clear that the world needs love more than ever right now.
So, we intend to compile a gorgeous, heart-centered collection of inspiring love stories to spread the joy, and remind others that love IS possible, no matter the cirumstances.
We hope that your story is selected, to inspire millions. Can't wait to read it!
