Note from the editor
Greener Pastures is a comedy and satire site run by a bunch of writers obsessed with out-writing, out-joking and out-funnying each other. While their work has been published all over the web on sites like McSweeney’s, Belladonna, Points In Case, Weekly Humorist, MuddyUm, etc, their work has also been rejected so many times, they had no choice but to seek greener pastures. If you’re interested in writing for us, we’d love to hear from you. Check out our submission guidelines and get in touch with us. You can also follow us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
