What is Jobs of the Damned?

Jobs of the Damned is a cross-platform publishing venture initiated by Heliotrope Books, a small press in New York City. It is, on one hand, an online creative non-fiction writing contest, an open call for true stories about difficult, inappropriate bosses. On the other hand, it is a collaboration between the participants of this contest and a panel of writers and editors who will assemble a book.
