Overtime, a series of one-story chapbooks, was created to showcase some of the stories we receive that are a little too long for our Workers Write! series, but are worthy of publication.

We are looking for stories between 5,000 - 10,000 words, where work is a central theme.

(We also will consider serializing novels about the workplace. Please query first.)

We publish 6 hours a year. Subscriptions are available for $15 and include a copy of Workers Write!.

Individual hours cost $2.50.

If you think you have a story that would make an excellent edition of Overtime, send us a query.

Hour 11 of Overtime is Terese Pampellonne's story "In Service of Man."

Excerpt:
"I contemplated my reflection in the mirror behind the bar. The dim overhead lighting created shadows over my skin. Where my eyes should be, there were only deep pockets of darkness. I'd blushed my cheeks heavily, and the too-pale foundation the girl at Bloomingdale's sold me made my face look like a death mask. How kabuki, I thought. How appropriate for a Japanese piano bar."
