Riverbabble, Not Psychobabble….

Riverbabble, a bi-annual electronic publication has put out a call for poetry, flash fiction and short fiction for their next issue.  They’re interested in general works that hit the experimental and literary styles.  The theme for this go-around is Temptation & Seduction, so dig deep into that innermost, naughty bit and pull out some writing that tempts, tantalizes and raises the temperature of your audience.  Strike a blow at the very libido of anyone who glances in your direction.  Take off that…. err… sorry.  Got carried away.  Just have your piece (not THAT kind of piece, you cretins) in to them by May 19th, 2011.  Oh, the cap on word-count is 2,500, to be succinct, not verbose.  Make every word count!
