The Reject Pile

From the Editor
Have you had a humor piece rejected by McSweeney’s, The New Yorker et al.? For every piece big humor sites publish, many are rejected. At least some of that must be worth reading, right?
The Reject Pile wants to help your humor writing see the light of day. If it makes us laugh, it will probably make others laugh too, and we’d like to facilitate that. The thought of so much humor sitting in digital desk drawers collecting digital dust keeps us awake at night.
We want to publish these huddled masses of humor yearning to be read. We want to give you a byline (or several) you can show your friends and the Internet at large. We want to give your piece the legitimacy of being published on a real-life .com website so your parents will stop nagging you about what you’re doing with your life (at least temporarily (hopefully)).
The Reject Pile plans to publish funny stuff online on a daily basis. Show us what you’ve got.
Submissions
See above.
A few guidelines:
– Conceptual humor, satire, open letters, lists, etc. Personal essays will probably be kept to a minimum or not published at all, unless they are amazing.
– Comics and cartoons also welcomed
– Sub-1000 words (though a bit longer isn’t out of the question)
– Must not have been previously published – anywhere.
– Paste your submission into the body of the email (no attachments, please)
Alright, that’s enough out of us. We look forward to reading your piece!
