We’re finally able to see the bottom of the queue (though we’re not quite finished with it yet) and decided to go ahead and open submissions again. We have more readers and a better system, so we’re quite looking forward to the new crop of stories. (If you’re interested in being a submissions reader, please email your resume to Deena@drolleriepress.com.)

Please check out the guidelines on the submissions page and then send us your very best work. We can’t wait to read it!
