-------------------------------------------------------------------------
For Flash Fiction:
While there is no single
universally acceptable definition
of flash fiction, we are interested in seeing stories no more than 1200 words in length, in which most of the classic story elements (character,
conflict,
resolution, and so on) are present or strongly implied. We welcome
mainstream
or mimetic fiction, as well as genre works. Our main criterion is the
excellence of
the story, not the rubric it might fall under.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Writing in Dialect:
In addition to our guidelines for poetry and flash fiction, we would like to see works using the legitimate rules of writing in dialect and vernacular English.
RR's poetry and fiction editors are trained in the linguistic models of variety in language, and we have a socio-linguist on our board of directors. Poems/stories written in African
American English, Spanish English, Appalachian English, Outer Banks
Brogues, Lumbee English, Cherokee English, etc., will receive close
readings.
