Stroud Short Stories

Stroud

10th November 2019

 

 

An evening of short stories written and read by Gloucestershire authors

This event is part of the 2019 Stroud Book Festival

Formed in 2011, this is Stroud Short Stories 19th event and follows the sell-out event at the Cotswold Playhouse in May.

Proclaimed by the Cheltenham Literature Festival as “Possibly the best short story event in the South West”, SSS’s considerable reputation is based on the unfailingly high quality of the stories read at its events.

Writers from across Gloucestershire submit their stories twice a year to SSS Organiser John Holland. Ten stories are selected - from the hundred or so submitted - to be read by their authors, who may be professional writers, skilled amateurs or complete beginners.

This time it’s an open theme so any short story subjects and genres may be included. John has a new co-judge too - short fiction author Chloe Turner.

The last 13 events all sold out in advance, so you should book early to avoid disappointment - especially as it’s part of the 2019 Stroud Book Festival.

More information is on the SSS website - stroudshortstories.blogspot.com
