When we set out to publish this special holiday edition of The Napkin Project, we knew that we didn't want to tell typical holiday stories. No treacle-y tales of family, forgiveness, and full hearts—that's not our style. And so, when we asked five tremendously talented writers to submit works of short fiction contained on cocktail napkins, we gave them this prompt: "Write a story set at an office holiday party." Corporate parties aren't the stuff of Hallmark movies or holiday literary lore, but they do make fertile ground for fiction. The proof is right here, scribbled in their own handwriting. |
