The theme for our debut anthology is folklore. We'll be inviting short story submissions from writers living in the North of England. Submissions will open 1st July to 30th September.
Two weeks today, we open for submissions for our first anthology!
If you're a Northern writer who fancies getting folkloric, we want to read your words! And for the rest of you lovely readers and writers, we're super grateful for any help you can give sharing this opportunity 🙏

Little trip to Greece (Leeds Playhouse) to see a performance of Shirley Valentine. Beautiful performance from Mina Anwar. Cooks a mean chips n egg too.

What a modern classic SV is and how Mina brought the character to life - so funny yet so touching. Hats off to actors who can give such heartfelt solo performances night after night, and twice a day on weekends!

Just saw the absolute legend Mina Anwar (yes, Gita from The Sarah Jane Adventures!) SMASH IT at The Octagon Theatre, Bolton in the one woman show Shirley Valentine. Palm of her hand stuff from the moment she walked on stage. That was truly special. @hildabaker.bsky.social
