We are so close! Just need another 3 writers for the Advent Calendar Story Train. Also, if you have already signed up and think you may be able to write 2 stories (not just 1) please let me know in the comments. It means we can have back ups in case we don't fill the last 3 slots and in case anyone has to pull out.
Big thanks to everyone who has already signed up for this year's Advent Calendar Story Train. It was lovely seeing so many people get straight in there and fill in the form. However, I am still 7 writers down. If you have not yet signed up, and are interested, please fill in the form linked below. If you know someone who might want to give flash fiction writing a go - send them to this post.
It's that time again (actually, I'm a little late!). Are you ready to join the Advent Calendar Story Project for 2025? It's very simple, if you are a writer, think you can write a (up to) 1000 word flash fiction on a theme (to be confirmed) then consider joining the project.
I have just been informed by one of the Advent Calendar Story Train participants that they never received any of my reminders. *panicked laughter*
That is a little concerning and would also explain why quite a few stories have not been received
Unfortunately, one of my lovely participants has had to withdraw from the Advent Calendar Story Train due to unforeseen circumstances. So I have a single slot still open. Do you want to join the Train or do you know someone who might be interested?
To all the Advent Calendar Story Train participants, I just wanted you to know that the email with the theme and all the details went out on the 31st May. It appears some of you may not have received it.
EDIT: We did it! We now have all 24 writers! Thank you so much, everyone!
I am still looking for 10 more writers to join the Advent Calendar Story Project. Big thanks to those who have already joined. If you know anyone who might be interested in writing a flash fiction piece (up to 1,000 words) based on a theme (that will be supplied shortly... please send them to this post.
Back in 2022, I ran the Advent Calendar Story Train Project. It did well and I've been asked by several writers if it will be coming back. So, I'm bringing it back!
If you are a writer and are interested in joining this project. Please keep reading for details.
If you saw my A Writerly Update post or received my latest newsletter, you will have noticed I talked about a Collab Project with other writers. Check out the details below to see if this collaboration project is something you'd like to join!
