LGBT Mother's Day/Father's Day Stories A project of Untreed Reads Publishing (see other related projects). Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions. We provide the following information as an archive. About We are announcing a Call for Submissions for LGBT-themed Mother’s Day and Father’s Day stories. We are particularly interested in stories about gay and lesbian parents. Here are some other qualifications on this call: These should NOT be coming-out stories, unless the story is told from the point of view of the parent. Even then, we’d rather hold off on those kinds of stories for this call. No happy endings are required. Realism above all else.
