Why “Dear Miss Kitty”?
Writing your tribute might be challenging to begin. If you’re finding that it’s hard to start, try opening your tribute as a letter.
You could write to us, by opening with our website name, “Dear Miss Kitty”, or you could use the name of the person you’re writing about, or a different name to retain anonymity.
The most important thing to do is to begin at the beginning so that you can share with us how your world was changed and why this person was so special, so we can all honour them.
Why can’t I sign in using my social media accounts (Facebook, Google, etc.)?
Connecting social media accounts to a platform goes against the premise of our tributes being anonymous.
Why post anonymously?
Sometimes we need to express ourselves deeply, but there is nobody to tell. Other times we want to tell “someone” and to tell “no one”.
Dear Miss Kitty lets you choose whether to use your real name, or an alias for posting your Tributes.
