Calling all budding, or fully blossomed, writers! Slough Libraries and Culture are working on a Collaborative Novel and we would like you to consider writing a chapter. Themes will include prejudice, oppression and love. If interested please drop an email to joseph.sammon@slough.gov.uk with Collaborative Novel in the subject line.
Zoom meetings are being held with a core group of writers and we are exploring the structure and 'rules' of this creative project. So far we have agreed that each chapter must have a 600 - 1000 word count, be turned around in 3 days, and must contain at least one character from the previous chapter. Writers also have to be aged 18+.
As each chapter is written it will be published here on the Blog and it would be really cool if we could include your name, a small photograph and a couple of sentences about yourself.
So before you put pen to paper contact joseph.sammon@slough.gov.uk
