Please submit funny, creative nonfiction stories, 300-1200 words in length, set in or relating to work. There is no entry fee, and writers can submit as many entries as they wish before the December 18th deadline. Prizes are: $500 and a print copy of the book for first place, $200 and a print copy for second place, and $100 and a print copy for 3rd, 4th, and 5th places.

All featured stories will receive a digital copy of the book on publication. The best submissions will be featured in an anthology of funny workplace stories that is scheduled to publish next year. If it makes us laugh, it works and is eligible for prize money and publications.

We are keen to encourage quality submissions, so suggest writers to check their stories before submitting using Prowritingaid. They have free and paid versions and are the best writing software we know to help improve grammar, readability and check for repetition, ‘sticky’ sentences and suggest alternatives.
