You pick the subject and you decide what the content will
be.
What
types of content can be published?
Anything e.g. photo's, music, poems, artwork - as long as
it is to do with local history in this area.
It could be:
* Your memories - recorded in a variety of formats
* The history of a place or building.
* The history of an event e.g. the Matthew Street Festival
And
history didn't just happen hundreds of years ago, your magazine
could be about an event which maybe happened just 10 years
ago.
