PROJECT SPECIFICS

Green Gecko is looking for up to eight punny stories. It's eight and not ten because two slots are already filled.

These will mostly be fiction, but I'd love some non-fiction. (Remember well written non-fiction pays two cents per word, so if you can take a real story and make it punny, you'll get paid double.)

The theme is Passion for Puns.

Just send a funny story full of puns, but don't forget it needs a story arc, plot and some characters. However, stories where two characters start telling each other puns are a hard sell.
Fiction: Any genre. Got a punny robot? Great. Punny vampire? Even better. Non-fiction: Punny cooking story? Great! Can you pun a current topic? Even better! Nothing is off limits. You are free to pun.

Should I get a plethora of suitable submissions, I'll buy more than the ten that I'm looking for. I may also buy less than ten.

  1. All submissions should be between five hundred and three thousand words.
  2. Standard manuscript format (Don't use tabs to indent your paragraphs!)
  3. .rtf, .doc or .docx
  4. Remember, the theme is Passion for Puns. Every story must be chock full of puns. 
Submissions remain open until filled.You may submit your work elsewhere, just let me know that you wish to withdraw as soon as possible.
