One Story One Story is a non-profit literary magazine that features one great short story mailed to subscribers every three weeks. One Story’s mission is to save the short story by publishing in a friendly format that allows readers to experience each story as a stand-alone work of art and a simple form of entertainment.

One Story publishes each writer one time only, allowing the reader to experience new and exciting voices. Writers submit works between September and June. These submitters are available for rental.

Since launching in 2002, many of the stories published in One Story have won awards, and many One Story writers have gone on to publish their first (or third, or tenth) books.
