Story Fridays had a great Anniversary! Stories, songs, memories and a packed out house. If you couldn't get to Burdall's on Friday, then you can listen again here:
http://www.awordinyourear.org.uk/storyfridayarchive/anniversary-march/Story Friday Journeys is on Friday 28th April, and the deadline is on Monday 10th April. You can submit stories about journeys long and short, funny and sad, faraway and close, dramatic and scary.
Story Fridays are working with Engage at the Theatre Royal for this Story Fridays. There are some story slots reserved for Engage writers but there spaces for everyone else too.
WORKSHOPS: The next Story Friday workshop is on Saturday 25th March at Clare's house in Camden in Bath (the Library is not available at the moment). The theme of the workshop is STORY - plot, structure, shape. Cost of the workshop is £5, with possibly a parking permit for £1. For more information go to:
www.awordinyourear.org.uk/workshops/. To book, email Clare on clare.reddaway@btinternet.com.
SUBMISSION DETAILS: Story Fridays are looking for short stories or monologues, fact or fiction (but mainly fiction), maximum 2,000 words. If you want to enter a flash piece that can work too. No poetry, thank you.
The event will be held on Friday 28th April at Burdall's Yard in Bath. Deadline for submissions is Monday 10th April. Please check that you are available to come along on the 28th April before you submit. Story Friday like the writers to be in the audience for these events.
They have some wonderful professional actors who are very happy to read your story if performance gives you the jitters. Olly Langdon of Kilter Theatre (who also is our brilliant host) will read a male voice, and there are a number of actresses who can step in for stories which need a female voice. Let them know in your email when you submit if you'd like someone else to read your piece.
Story Fridays is currently an unpaid opportunity.
Email clare.reddaway@btinternet.com, or call 01225 428 469 or go to the website
www.awordinyourear.org.uk if you'd like more information.
Story Fridays are run by Clare Reddaway of A Word In Your Ear and Olly Langdon and Caroline Garland of Kilter Theatre.
