The latest brainchild of this amorphous mass of skilful scribes is something called Station Stories. It's a live literature event under the noses of the ticket inspectors and rubbish collectors at Piccadilly train station.
Those involved in this project just happen to be some of our favourite writers. They are:
- Intimacy-inducing award-winning Jenn Ashworth;
- Nightjar-opening prize-judge Nicholas Royle;
- Language-perverting Bookmunch-editing Peter Wild;
- House-felling horror-hammering Thomas Fletcher;
- Other-rooming format-buster Tom Jenks.
See the writers and their links here.
What we love about this event is the live element: as the punters receive their stories throughout the station, the writers will be involving unsuspecting members of the public.
Whether they can stop participants getting on the 3.25 to Doncaster in search of even more wild and spectacular stories is a different matter.
The Station Stories will be told over three days in May and you can book tickets here.
