Everyone has a Tahoe story. Bona Fide Books wants to read yours.

Bona Fide Books_2Bona Fide Books, a small press in Meyers, is seeking short fiction and nonfiction for a collection about life at the lake. Micro-stories from any fiction or nonfiction genre are welcome: memoir, humor, action-adventure, tragedy, mystery, love or love lost, even ghost stories. The only requirements: each piece must be about or occur in the Tahoe region, and it can be no more than 500 words.

Like the pea-sized gold nugget sifted out of the Upper Truckee, tiny but priceless. Short enough to be read on the lift or while sipping a latte. No time for a warm-up, just instant clarity.

No subject is taboo. Gambling, mountaineering, romance — let it fly. Unsung stories are also sought: the Washoe, environmentalists, old-timers. Bona Fide Books wants to hear from everyone and create a book that reflects the amazing, complex place we know and love.

Submissions will be accepted through May 1. Go online for more information.
