Dear Leader Tales – Available Now
2020 has been a very trying year for humanity. In addition to a barely-checked viral contagion causing widespread economic distress, there are the usual cavalcade of Dear Leaders doing exactly what they do best, oppressing and dividing the rest of us. Politicians don’t have an exclusive in this regard, although sometimes it seems that way. These stories and poems are meant to humorously talk truth to power, even though we fully understand the narcissists simply won’t see themselves represented. Whether your Dear Leader is an orange-haired Wendigo, Asian Dictator, Religion, CEO, spouse, demon, or feline overlord — all are fair game in this wide-ranging collection.
As the contentious American Presidential Election campaign comes to a close, many of us could use a humorous respite and to remind ourselves the problem is not new or different, just oppression’s same old song. Take a break, read these stories — the things we worry about today will pass and new ones will emerge. This collection will take you to the next screen.

Dear Leader Tales – FAQ
Questions which have come up several times are addressed below:
Q: I sent my story to the email today and it failed?
A: The email address was only active from 7/1/2020 through 7/31/2020 submission period, and as of 8/1/2020 we are no longer accepting submissions for the project.
Q: When will we hear back on whether our stories were chosen?
A: We will notify all authors of their specific results no later than 8/21/2020.
Q: Can I submit work which is not theme related for Dear Leader Tales?
A: Yes, however it will not be considered for selection to Dear Leader Tales. Don’t waste your time (or ours) by sending in off-theme work.
Q: Why isn’t the email address working in the Call for Submissions?
A: It works if the webpage spaces are removed, emails are only valid without spaces. On our website we try to limit the number of email addresses scraped by bots, so a little indirection is used.
Q: I have two (or more) stories to submit, can I submit them all on one transmittal?
A: Please don’t. We are using the email subject line to easily sort through submissions, and it would be very easy to miss the extras. We welcome additional submissions however.
Q: Do I have to send a cover letter or explanatory text?
A: No, but it will be useful for us when it comes time to break deadlocks between two equally weighted stories. Do it once and reuse on other calls, those of us on this end will appreciate it!
We will update this page as questions are raised.
