Main Street Diaries

What are the main Street Diaries?

The Main Street Diaries are short stories, no more than 1000 words, about the good people of Benicia, stories that will make us laugh, cry, even inspire us, stories that will bring us closer together. these stories may be fiction or non-fiction, prose or poetry.

Feeling inspired? Here’s an opportunity to create vignettes that lead to smiles, maybe tears, maybe unanswered questions. send us your Main Street Diaries story and, if it meets our minimal editorial guidelines, we’ll publish it on the New Benicia Ferry homepage.
