Submit your stories

If you would like to submit a story, then follow these simple rules:

  • Make sure your story has only 101 words. Use the word count on your word processor.
  • Spell check
  • Look for spelling errors that spell check missed e.g. to vs. too, your vs. you’re etc.
  • Include a title for your story.
  • Include the credit with your story, including a link back to your site if you want one. All submissions are manually checked, so don’t bother linking to spammy sites.
  • Send your story to submissions@101words.org - you can even send a text message if you are inspired and are not near a computer.

Want to become a regular contributor?

All you have to do is prove yourself. Submit at least 5 stories that don’t suck and you’re in.

What do I get for becoming a regular?

Basically, free promotion. All regular contributors have an ‘About the author’ profile underneath each of their stories. This includes a link back to your site.
