Riptide - Devon - Is truth stranger than fiction?

I was alerted to this by a fellow book blogger, and thought that as much of my blog is about history and memories perhaps I should submit an entry.......

For the Devon-themed volume, unusually, the editors are looking for two different kinds of submissions – fictional ones and ‘memoir snapshots’.

Fictional stories can be up to 5000 words as usual.  The memoirs need to be very short – a brief account of no more than 500 words offering an unusual insight into Devon. 

If you know someone with a story to tell, go out and interview them, write it up, edit it into sparkling form and send it to submissions@riptidejournal.co.uk
