Quarter Castle Publishing is making a Call for Submissions for a short story collection to honour those who lived and died by the sea.
The goal is to tell the stories of life by the sea. It’s a unique existence, one in which the tides and winds set the pace. There are many joys, hardships and tragedies from living by the constantly changing waters gracing our shores in Atlantic Canada. For families who have spent generations breathing in the intoxicating saltwater-laced breeze, the sea is in our blood; it is our home. We will live here and die here.
The collection is entitled The Sea, Our Home – Honouring the resilient men and women who forged a living along the rugged coastline of Atlantic Canada throughout the centuries.
The contest is open to all residents of Atlantic Canada, and those who once lived here and still love and miss the sea. First-time authors and seasoned veterans are welcome to submit their short stories.
The deadline for submissions is March 15, 2021.
To learn more about this call for submissions, visit The Sea, Our Home Short Story Collection page.

Would a story about a little fishing village in the north of Scotland be acceptable? Alex Birkbeck ________________________________

Alexander, you know my weakness: Scotland. How could I say no? There are strong ties between the people of Scotland and New Scotland and many from the Atlantic Provinces can trace their lineage back to this wonderful place. Please, submit the story for review.
