Your story could mean something to someone else.

A friendship that changed your life. A difficult time. Finding your place. Share a real experience from your own life to help women recognise themselves in one another, feel less alone and build community.

You do not need to be a writer, have used Spher or have a happy ending.

Choose how you would like to share

This is about real lives and connection. Share a few paragraphs or a longer personal account, in your own words or in a conversation with us.

Write it your way

Write or paste your story into the form. You can choose a name, a pseudonym or publication without a name. A private email is optional.

Share a written story

Let us listen

Tell us briefly what you would like to talk about. If we move forward, we agree on the format, what you want to share and where it may be published before recording.

Take part in a recorded conversation

There is room for different lives

Friendship, loneliness, relationships, work, identity, loss, starting over, feeling unsafe or finding your place. Difficult experiences are welcome too. You do not have to turn them into advice or inspiration.

Share only what you want to share. Leave out other people’s names and identifying details, especially information about children.

What happens after you send it?

  1. We read and consider your contribution

    Submitting does not guarantee publication. Your contribution goes to the Spher team and is never published automatically.

  2. You approve what we publish

    If you leave an email and we would like to move forward, we contact you. You approve the final text or edited recording and the agreed channels before publication.

  3. Where your story could be shared

    Your story could be shared on Spher’s website, in the app, in our newsletter or on Instagram. Before publication, we agree with you on the final text or edited recording, how you are credited and which channels we may use. Paid advertising requires a separate agreement.

Share a written story

Write or paste a personal account of something you have experienced yourself. This invitation is for real-life experiences, not novels or fictional stories. Text only, without attachments. A title is optional.

If we agree to publish, how would you like to be presented?

Your email is not published. Leave it if you want us to contact you about possible publication. You may also send without a name or email.

Without an email, we can read your contribution but cannot contact you to approve a final version. We will not publish it.

What happened, and what did it mean to you? Share only what you feel comfortable sharing. Between 40 and 30,000 characters.

Take part in a recorded conversation

This is an expression of interest. You are not committing to an interview or giving permission to record or publish. A short introduction is enough.

Recorded conversations are currently available in Swedish and English only.

Between 20 and 3,000 characters. Save detailed or sensitive parts of your story for a conversation after we have agreed on the format.

Your contribution, your choices

With your explicit consent, Fourpirr AB (Spher) reads your contribution, considers publication and contacts you if you leave an email.

Your original text is encrypted in our WordPress intake, with administrator access only. We email a notification without your story; you are not added to a mailing list. Deletion is scheduled after 90 days; backups are handled separately.

Without a name does not mean fully anonymous: details, your face or voice may identify you. Hosting services may process technical connection data, even without a name or email.

To withdraw consent or request deletion, contact us with your submission reference. We may need to verify ownership. Publication requires a separate agreement; copies shared by others may remain.

Language and translation

We may translate your story into Swedish with AI support. A person at Spher reviews the meaning, and we keep your original.

First, we explain which AI service and data would be used and ask for your separate approval. You also approve the final text before publication.

Stories submitted without an email are not sent to external AI tools and are not published.

Spam protection

Activate Google reCAPTCHA to send this form. Google may process technical connection and browser information and use cookies. We do not include your story in our verification request.

This invitation is for editorial contributions. Forms are not monitored for urgent help and are not a counselling service. In an emergency, contact your local emergency services.
