Writers Make Terrific Readers!

Dear Writers and other Friends of Lunch Hour Stories,

Did you know that our stories are written by authors all over the world? Did you know that we publish up to 28 stories (short and very short) each year, from as many new and unpublished authors as possible?

At Lunch Hour Stories, our goal is to support and promote YOU, the writer. That's why we give each author individual recognition by printing every short story in its own individual booklet. And that's why we pay a semi-professional rate for every story we publish, and always offer our contest winners cash prizes. When you send a story to us, you can be assured that it is read in its entirety and considered carefully for publication by at least two of our editors. If we like it, we'll publish it. If not, we'll try our best to offer constructive feedback and suggestions for alternative markets.

Our editors and staff members (of whom there are few) are not paid for the work they do; they are volunteers. Our magazine does not receive funding from any source; we rely solely on the support of our readers. So please support our efforts by subscribing to Lunch Hour Stories magazine. Without subscribers like you, we cannot do the work that we do.

Support the magazine that supports you! You'll feel great, AND you'll get 16 amazing issues each year.

Subscribe now at www.lunchhourstories.com/shop . Thank you for your support!

Nina Bayer, Editor
