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 expect to publish 1-3 stories a year, and each
issue will cost $2.50.
If you think you have a story that would make an
excellent edition of Overtime, send us a query.
