NEW CONTEST!!!

“We envision this contest as a fun way to get all of
our readers thinking about the trials and tribulations
of working from home, and all of us have different
stories to tell, no matter what we do for a living, so
we encourage everyone to enter.” Open to short fiction
or creative nonfiction entries (under 1000 words) only
(no poetry), and working from home should be the main
theme. Winning entries will be published in WHY’s
May/June 2008 issue, which goes live on May 1, 2008;
the winning writer will receive $500; cash prizes will
also be awarded for the second- and third-place
winners. There will be five honorable mentions.
Writers must be 18 years of age or older, and
previously published work is eligible. Visit the Web
site for more information.
